NZQA National Qualifications Services (NQS) has completed the revision and rollover of the unit standards listed above.
Date new versions published March 2014
Planned review date December 2017
Summary
The standards above were due for review in 2015 and the mandatory review of qualifications in the Adult Education and Training and Generic Education and Training sectors are scheduled for 2014. The combined effect of changes to unit standard format and terminology, and the potential impact of the mandatory review on the standards, led NQS to propose that the standards should be rolled over, with a full review to take place in 2017.
NZQA National Qualifications Services consulted with the sector and received endorsement for this approach.
Main changes
· Corrections were made to the wording of the purpose in standards 7104, 7105, and 7113.
· Minor grammatical amendments were made to evidence requirements in standards 7104, 7105, and 7115.
· Minor wording amendments were made to explanatory notes for clarity, consistency, and accuracy of references in standards 7094, 7098, 7108, 7115, 11552, and 20470.
· Last date for assessment of versions superseded by the 2010 review of the standards was specified (31 December 2015 for all standards except standard 7097, which already had dates specified). Results will not be accepted where the assessment date is after the last date for assessment of the superseded version of the standards.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 2015 to December 2017.
