Summary

 

The cheese making sector of the dairy industry met in August 2011 to discuss the need to develop qualifications specifically for their sector.  This included industry representatives and the New Zealand Cheese School which provides training for the sector.  As part of the discussion process the current cheese making assessment standards were identified for inclusion in a new Cheese Making domain.  The assessment standards were examined for fitness for purpose and were brought up to date where required.  The amended assessment standards were endorsed by the Advisory Group in September.

 

Main changes

 

·      Change of domain from Dairy Laboratory Methodology, Dairy Processing and Dairy Technology to new Cheese Making domain.

·      Changes to credits for standards 770, 4306, 17597 and 17617.

·      Changes to titles.

·      Outcomes, evidence requirements and ranges were brought up to date.
