Summary of review and consultation process
Between 2013 and 2015, a mandatory sector review of qualifications for the commercial road transport sector occurred. The review included broad consultation with industry and training provider stakeholders to ensure that the new qualifications meet current and future needs.
The review resulted in a recommendation that the national qualifications listed above should be replaced by New Zealand qualifications in order to continue to meet stakeholder needs.
The replacement New Zealand qualifications have been listed, and the national qualifications will be discontinued in December 2019.
