Summary

 

HITO is developing programmes leading towards recently listed New Zealand qualifications for the Beauty sector.

 

As part of these processes, it was noted that the credit value assigned to unit standard 29595 was too low in relation to other unit standards in the Beauty Therapy domain and did not reflect the time required for learning, practice and assessment of the required skills and knowledge.

 

Main changes

 

·      Credits have been increased from eight to ten.
