Skills Active Aotearoa has completed the review of Exercise Prescription unit standards listed above.
Date new versions published January 2018
Planned review date December 2022
Summary
The review of these unit standards was prompted by the outcomes of the mandatory review of qualifications, specifically the listing of:
· New Zealand Certificate in Pre-designed Exercise Instruction (Level 3) [Ref: 3566].
Feedback from stakeholders was gathered through an open consultation process and used to guide the development of the industry training programme for the qualification above, and the development and review of the associated unit standards.
New unit standards were developed to meet industry needs for exercise instruction for individuals.
Main changes
· Standard 6571 was reviewed and title changed to ensure currency with industry knowledge and practice.
· Standard 7021 was replaced by standard 30933.
· Two unit standards were designated expiring and not replaced.
· Four new unit standards were developed.
The last date of assessment for superseded versions of Category B standard is 31 December 2020
