The Skills Organisation has completed the rollover of the unit standards listed above.  The unit standards in bold have also been revised.

 

Date new versions published                                                          January 2015

 

Planned review date                                                                           December 2018

 

Summary

 

Along with some minor amendments to some of the unit standards to correct errors or reflect current trends, the standards have been rolled over to ensure the unit standards remain available during the transition to New Zealand qualifications.

 

Main changes

 

·      All unit standards were rolled over to 2018.

·      Unit standards 18240, 18241, 26119, and 26121 have had some minor amendments made to correct errors or to reflect current trends.

·      The evidence needed for unit standard 18243 was reduced from two products to one product, and the title was updated accordingly.

·      Evidence requirement 3.1 was removed from unit standard 26120.
