NZQA National Qualifications Services has completed the review of the unit standards listed above.
Date new versions published January 2017
Planned review date December 2021
Summary
These unit standards were reviewed to support the New Zealand Certificate in Adult and Tertiary Teaching (Level 4) [Ref: 2746] and the New Zealand Certificate in Adult and Tertiary Teaching (Level 5) [Ref: 2993]. A suite of Level 4 and 5 unit standards were developed to align with the graduate profile outcomes in content and credit value. The suite of standards includes some reviewed standards and some new.
This review proceeded alongside the review of Adult Literacy and Numeracy Education (ALNE) unit standards to ensure that cross-crediting between the ALNE qualifications and the New Zealand Certificate in Adult and Tertiary Teaching (Level 5) [Ref: 2993] was supported.
During late 2015 and early 2016, an expert panel comprised of representation from the tertiary sector (polytechnic, private training establishment, wānanga); an ALNE specialist; and a moderator, met to review these standards.
The new drafts of the standards were developed and circulated to the following members of the wider network for consultation and endorsement:
· providers that had recorded results against these standards;
· current ALNE qualification owners;
· other stakeholders who had expressed an interest in being part of the consultation process.
Main changes
· The standards have taken a more integrated approach, mirroring the qualification conditions.
· The credit values and levels were considered in the context of the qualifications.
- The levels of standards 7093 and 11551 were decreased to better reflect the level of the content in the standards.
- Credit values for standards 11551, 11552 and 7093 were increased to better reflect the amount of work required by candidates.
· Two standards (7102 and 19444) have changed significantly and each was replaced by a new standard.
· Three new standards have been developed to ensure there are sufficient standards for those who want to develop unit-standards-based programmes leading to qualifications [Ref: 2746] and [Ref: 2993].
Category C unit standards will expire at the end of December 2020
