Summary of review and revision consultation process

 

The review of the qualifications was initiated by changes in industry practice, including the implementation of industry grading and treatment programs developed by the WPA Wood Processors Association of NZ and the Department of Building and Housing.  These changes had significant impact on the auditing and product quality requirements of the industry and therefore the qualifications.  Changes have also been made to the core skills structure and content of the qualifications based on feedback from the Wood Panels and Solid Wood Sector Operating Committees to accommodate more flexible delivery options and sector specific requirements.  The review completes the process of separating solid wood and wood fibre manufacturing qualifications to ensure future consultation on qualification review and development is sector specific. 

 

Through consultation with the saw doctor industry sector it was agreed that the saw doctoring qualifications should be incorporated as strands in the solid wood manufacturing qualifications.  Aligning the saw doctoring sector more closely with sawmilling operations reflects the close working relationships between these areas, and allows trainees to choose from the same set of core and elective unit standards that cover the common skills and knowledge required. 

 

Extensive consultation with the solid wood and wood panels industries has been carried out for all reviewed, including expiring qualifications, as well as revised qualifications.

 

All changes were endorsed through sector operating committees, steering groups, and advisory groups nationwide.  In addition, the changes made to the revised qualifications were endorsed through the solid wood manufacturing and wood panels manufacturing sector operating committees.

 

This report includes a Review section and a Revision section for reviewed and revised qualifications as specified above.
