Summary


As part of the development of new qualifications for the commercial road transport industry, MITO’s Commercial Road Transport Working Group reviewed the standards listed above.


The review of these standards has resulted in updated outcomes and evidence requirements that reflect current industry practice. The review has also reconsidered the levels of the standards to ensure they reflect the NZQF level descriptors, and to make sure they will align with the Graduate Profile Outcomes in the proposed New Zealand qualifications in Commercial Road Transport.


The Working Group has endorsed the changes made to the standards.
