Summary
In 2014, NZQA National Qualifications Services initiated the review, revision and rollover of unit standards from the subfield Core Generic as part of a planned NQS work cycle.
A review panel was established following a nomination process, and met in January 2015. Unit standards for review, revision, and rollover were discussed by the panel. Eight unit standards were recommended for expiry.
National consultation on the reviewed standards was conducted in February 2015 through the NZQA website. No objections to the changes were received.
Main changes
· Levels were changed for standards 7120, 7121, and 12382.
· The level and credit value were changed for standard 10780.
· Titles were changed for standards 496, 548, 1979, 12354, and 16688.
· Unit standards 4246, 7128, 12384, 20587, 20588, 20589, 22805, and 25873 were designated expiring.
Category D unit standards will expire at the end of December 2018.
