The NZ Motor Industry Training Organisation (Inc) (MITO) has completed the review of the standards listed above.

Planned review date                                                                           December 2020

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 credits of the standards to ensure they reflect the time required for learning and assessment, 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.

Main changes

· Purpose, explanatory notes, outcomes, evidence requirements, and range statements were amended to ensure they are accurate and fit for purpose and to ensure clarity for users.

· Credits of four of the standards were increased to better reflect the time required for learning and assessment.

· The titles of two standards were changed to reflect changes made to their content.

The last date for assessment of superseded versions of these standards is 31 December 2017.  Results will not be accepted where the assessment date is after the last date for assessment of the superseded version of the standard.
