Competenz has completed the republication of the qualifications listed above.
Date of republication October 2017
The next qualification review is planned to take place during 2020.
Summary of review and consultation process
This republication to extend last dates of enrolment and assessment of National qualifications took place to allow Competenz sufficient time to develop a full range of training and assessment resources for the New Zealand qualifications listed. This also allows candidates enrolled in the National qualifications sufficient and realistic time frames to complete their qualifications or to be transitioned to the New Zealand qualifications once programmes are registered.
Main changes
Transition
It is anticipated that no existing candidates will be disadvantaged by these transition arrangements. However, anyone who feels that they have been disadvantaged may appeal to Competenz at the address below. Appeals will be considered on a case by case basis.
