Review of Youth Work qualification
National Certificate in Supervision of Youth Development Programmes (Conservation Corps and Youth Service Corps) [Ref: 0907]
Learning State Limited has completed the review of the qualification listed above.
Date report published January 2011
Summary of review and consultation process
This qualification was reviewed as part of Learning State Limited's review schedule.
To date there has been minimal usage of the qualification, with it only having been awarded once, which was in 2005. Consultation with the sector, which included the Ministry of Social Development, indicated that there was very little support for the continuation of this qualification. Also, the qualification is no longer achievable as it contains expired standards. As a result the qualification was designated expiring and was not replaced.
Main changes resulting from the review
The following qualification has been designated expiring and will expire at the end of February 2011.
