The ElectroTechnology Industry Training Organisation (ETITO) has completed the review of the unit standards listed above.
Date new versions published March 2011
Planned review date December 2015
Summary
Between 2008 and 2010, ETITO undertook extensive consultation with industry representatives, the New Zealand Security Association (NZSA), and the Security Industry Training Advisory Board (SITAB).
ETITO invited tertiary education organisations who were the providers of the standards at the time, and also those who had delivered programs in the past that included these unit standards. SITAB sat on the consultation group and SITAB also consulted training providers that make up its membership.
During the review, consideration was given to technology and equipment advancements, industry best practice and requirements, and changes in legislation. Three unit standards were designated category D expiring, and one new standard was developed.
Main changes
· Unit standards 5887, 5901, and 5904 were designated expiring as they were no longer fit for purpose.
· A new unit standard (Unit 27178, Demonstrate knowledge of integrated electronic security system design, commissioning, and fault finding) was developed.
Category D unit standards will expire at the end of December 2013
