Summary

 

Following the review of qualifications in the Scaffolding sector, consultation with subject matter experts was held to review and revise unit standards that may be used in unit standard based programmes leading to award of the New Zealand Scaffolding qualifications.  As the overarching credit value of the qualifications were reduced to better reflect the journey of learning, practice and assessment, the unit standards also reflect this change.

 

Main changes

 

 

The last date for assessment of the most recent superseded versions of these unit standards is December 2019
