Competenz has completed the revision of the unit standards listed above.
Date new versions published November 2011
Planned review date December 2016
Summary
These unit standards had been registered on 17 June 2011. Some changes are required to make assessment possible for candidates from across the mechanical engineering disciplines, including difficulties with the interpretation of some outcomes in these unit standards.
Main changes
· Titles of unit standards 4797 and 20799 now refer to 'common engineering metals' and the word 'basic' has been removed from the title of 20799.
· Explanatory notes of unit standard 4432 now refer to the International System of Units (SI), and include definitions for SI and Imperial units.
· Purpose statements, some outcome statements and evidence requirements have been updated in unit standards 4432, 20799 and 20917.
· Some ranges have been updated in each standard.
· References mentioned in 4797 and 20799 have been updated.
