The Building and Construction Industry Training Organisation (BCITO) has completed the review of the unit standards listed above.

 

Date new versions published                                                          October 2014

 

Planned review date                                                                           December 2018

 

Summary

 

As a result of their TRoQ process, BCITO has reviewed the listed unit standards to better reflect the requirements of the outcomes listed in the new qualifications.  This process has resulted in 21 new unit standards replacing 64 expiring unit standards.  A further three unit standards have been developed to fill identified gaps.  Four unit standards were designated as expiring as they are no longer fit for purpose and 14 unit standards were reviewed to bring them up to technical and industry specifications.  As a result of the evaluation of the new qualifications two new domains were identified and registered.  Existing and new unit standards have been allocated into these new domains.  These changes were endorsed by both industry and providers in November 2013.

 

Main changes

 

New domains Joinery Core Skills and Joinery Operational Skills were created to replace the Cabinetry, Door and Window Joinery, Joinery Machining, Laminate Fabrication, and Stairs and Other Joinery Trade Skills domains.  New and reviewed standards were registered in the new domains.

 

Category C and D unit standards will expire at the end of December 2016
