Summary

 

These unit standards were overdue for review.  The purpose of this review was to update legislation, definitions and ensure the unit standards reflected industry practice.  It was determined that these unit standards remained fit for purpose and no issues with assessment have been identified since the last review.

 

Main changes

 

·      Guidance information was updated to reflect current legislation.

·      Unit standards were transferred onto the new template.

·      Unit standard 380 was reclassified.

·      Recommended entry information was updated to reflect current unit standards.

·      A last date for assessment of superseded versions was specified for Category B reviewed standards.

·      Unit standards 21081, 21082 and 21681 were designated expiring without replacement due to a lack of use.

 

Category D unit standards will expire at the end of December 2020

 

The last date for assessment of superseded versions of Category B unit standards is December 2020
