Competenz has completed the review of the unit standards listed above.
Date new versions published March 2017
Planned review date December 2022
Summary
The unit standards were reviewed to align with the recently registered New Zealand Certificates in Mechanical Engineering and to meet Competenz’ s ongoing unit standard review schedule.
The review was carried out in consultation with mechanical engineering industry technical experts and the changes were endorsed by the industry technical group.
Main changes
· Changes were made to outcome statements, evidence requirements, and range statements to clarify assessment requirements, ensure alignment with current industry requirements, and to correct grammatical errors.
· A last date for assessment of the most recent superseded version of these standards was specified.
