NZQA National Qualifications Services (NQS) has completed the revision and rollover of the unit standard listed above.

 

Date new version published                                                             July 2013

 

Planned review date                                                                           December 2016

 

Summary

 

This unit standard is part of the NQS work plan for 2013.  The moderators indicated that the unit standard remains fit for purpose and therefore a revision and rollover was completed.  The next review is planned for December 2016.

 

Feedback from the moderators of this unit standard indicated that some of the hyperlinks in the Explanatory Notes were not functioning.  Hyperlinks to current documents were found and these were confirmed by the manager for the National Cervical Screening Programme (Ministry of Health).

 

After consultation with stakeholders, the last date for assessment of version 4 of this unit standard was set at 31 December 2014.  Although this is a relatively short period, there are no changes to the content of the unit standard, and it is preferable that correct references are used.

 

Main changes

 

References in Explanatory Notes were updated and correct hyperlinks provided.
