NZQA National Qualifications Services has completed the revision and rollover of the unit standards listed above.

 

Date new versions published                                                          June 2013

 

Planned review date                                                                           December 2016

 

Summary

 

The standards above were due for review in 2013, and the mandatory review of qualifications in the Adult Education and Training and Generic Education and Training sectors has been scheduled for 2014.  As the standards could be impacted by the mandatory review, it was proposed that the standards should be revised and rolled over, with a full review to take place in 2016.

 

NZQA National Qualifications Services consulted with the sector and received endorsement for this approach.

 

Main changes

 

·      Explanatory notes in standards 4098 and 11281 were revised to include a website link to assessment support material.

·        Last date for assessment of versions superseded by the 2008 review of the standards was specified (31 December 2015).  Results will not be accepted where the assessment date is after the last date for assessment of the superseded version of the standards.

·      The planned review date was extended from December 2013 to December 2016.
