Revision of Paint Manufacturing qualifications

National Certificate in Paint Manufacturing (Level 2) [Ref: 1364]

National Certificate in Paint Manufacturing (Level 3) [Ref: 1365]

The Plastics and Materials Processing Industry Training Organisation has revised the qualifications listed above.

Date new versions published May 2011

The next qualification review is planned to take place during 2013.

Reason for the revision

These qualifications were revised to take account of changes made to the Paint Manufacturing unit standards as a result of their review in February 2010. The revision of these qualifications also took account of reviews and revisions of unit standards and the Directory of Assessment Standards classifications which are managed by other Standard Setting Bodies and are listed in these qualifications.

Main changes resulting from the revision

The content and the structure of both qualifications were updated to take into account the details and status of reviewed standards and classifications in the qualifications.

National Certificate in Paint Manufacturing (Level 2) [Ref: 1364]

Version 2 was issued following revision to update the details and status of reviewed standards and classifications included in the qualification.

Changes to content and structure

· The credit total of the qualification increased from 45 to 47.

· The credit value of standard 20288 increased from 4 to 5.

· Standard 20291 increased from Level 1 to Level 2 and its title was updated.

· Standard 20293 was replaced by newly developed standards 26284 and 26285.

· The option to choose from the expiring Composites and Core Health domains was removed from Elective Set B and the option to choose from the First Aid domain, which replaced the Core Health domain, was added.

Transition

Version 1 of this qualification is not achievable because standard 20293 in the Compulsory section expired in December 2010. Therefore, all candidates working towards version 1 of this qualification who did not gain credit for standard 20293 before it expired must transfer to version 2 of this qualification.

This qualification contains standards that replace earlier standards. For the purposes of this qualification, people who have gained credit for the expiring standards are exempt from the requirement to gain credit for the replacement standards - see table below.
