Summary

 

All standards in the Supported Learning subfield were due to be reviewed by the end of December 2016.  However, this review was brought forward to support the recently listed New Zealand Certificate in Skills for Living for Supported Learners (Level 1) with an optional strand in Skills for Working [Ref: 2853].  New Supported Learning unit standards were developed to align with the graduate profile outcomes in content and credit value. These standards, along with Level 1 Tikanga standards can be used towards this qualification.

 

In 2015, an expert panel comprised of representatives from the tertiary sector (polytechnics), secondary sector (Ministry of Education, secondary schools, special schools), private course owners/resource writers and national moderators met to review these standards.

 

The reviewed standards were sent out for wider consultation to:

·         Providers that had recorded results against these standards

·         Supported Learning qualification owners

·         Secondary schools

·         Special schools

·         Tertiary providers

·         Organisations representing employer interest

·         Advocacy groups

·         Other stakeholders who had expressed an interest in being part of the consultation process.

 

Main changes

 

·         The new suite of standards are now competency-based as opposed to skills-based. They are more broadly written and awarded with an increased number of credits to reflect the increased breadth of content. As a result only 14 standards have been developed as opposed to the 65 standards currently listed.

·         With fewer standards, four domains are no longer necessary. The new standards are now under one domain Supported Learning – Personal, Community and Work Skills.

·         In the explanatory notes, reference has been made to include the New Zealand Certificate in Skills for Living for Supported Learners (Level 1) with an optional strand in Skills for Working [Ref: 2853] to which the new standards have been aligned.

·         No unit standards have been developed to replace the Supported Learning ICT standards. As ICT is a part of everyday life, it has been recommended in all Supported Learning standards that digital technology be used where appropriate for the learner and context.

·         45 standards have been designated Category C, and replaced by 9 new standards.

·         20 standards have been designated expiring without replacement (Category D). This is because there is not a direct match to the new standards.

·         There are 5 new standards where there is not a direct match to the existing standards.

 

 

Category C and D unit standards will expire at the end of December 2017.
