The Building and Construction Industry Training Organisation (BCITO) has completed the review of the unit standards listed above.
Date new versions published February 2011
Planned review date December 2015
Summary
This review took place as part of the scheduled review cycle of the unit standards in the Floor and Wall Tiling domain.
Consultation with representatives from the Floor and Wall Tiling industry took place in June 2010. It was identified that there is no longer a need for separate standards to assess knowledge in Floor and Wall Tiling, and it was decided to combine the assessment of required knowledge with assessment of practical skill to reflect the way this assessment would happen in the workplace. Unit standards were updated to include 'Demonstrate knowledge of' requirements in the Level 4 unit standards. In addition, unit standards were developed to acknowledge changes to industry skill requirements.
Main changes
· Unit standards 21373-21375 and 21377 were designated expiring and their content subsumed in unit standards 22023, 22026, 22027 and 22028 respectively.
· Unit standards 21376, 22029, and 22030 were replaced by unit standards 27057, 27062 and 27063 respectively.
· Titles and levels were updated to better reflect the skills and knowledge recognised by the unit standards, and credits were amended to better reflect the time required for learning and assessment.
· Purpose statements, explanatory notes, outcome statements, and evidence requirements were updated to meet industry practice.
· New unit standards 27064, 27065, and 27066 were registered.
Category C and D unit standards will expire at the end of December 2013.
