Summary
As part of the development of new qualifications for the beauty industry, HITO’s Beauty Advisory Group reviewed the standards listed above.
The review of these standards has resulted in updated outcomes and evidence requirements that reflect current industry practice, and align the required skills and knowledge with the Graduate Profile Outcomes of the New Zealand qualifications for the beauty sector.
The Advisory Group has endorsed the changes made to the reviewed standards, and the development of new standards.
Main changes
· The title of standard 27175 was amended to reflect changes made to its content.
· The levels of standards 27172, 27173, and 27175 were increased to correctly align with the NZQA level descriptors
· Purpose statements, explanatory notes, entry information, outcomes, evidence requirements, and range statements were updated to ensure they are fit for purpose and to ensure clarity for users.
· Standards 19589 and 19599 have been designated expiring, and replaced by new standards 29326 and 29327 respectively.
The last date for assessment of the superseded version of these standards is 31 December 2018. Results will not be accepted where the assessment date is after the last date for assessment of the superseded version of the standard.
