The ElectroTechnology Industry Training Organisation (ETITO) has reinstated and extended the expiry date of the unit standards listed above.
Date new versions published October 2011
Summary
These unit standards were reviewed as Category D in May 2008 and designated to expire in December 2010.
The purpose of the reinstatement and extension of expiry date is to align these unit standards' expiry dates with the last date for the assessment of version 2 of the National Certificate in Industrial Measurement and Control (Level 4) [Ref: 0410]. In this way, candidates enrolled on programmes leading to the award of version 2 can complete their assessments and be awarded that version of the qualification.
Main changes
· The unit standards were reinstated and expiry date extended from 31 December 2010 to 31 December 2011.
Impact on existing consent to assess
No new or extension of consent to assess will be granted during the extended expiry.
