Careerforce has completed the review of the unit standards listed above.

 

Summary

 

No results have been recorded against the three Window Cleaning unit standards for at least the past 6 years (2013 – 2018), so they are being expired. 

 

The most recent recording of results against unit standard 1585 was in 2016 (2 results) with only a single result being registered in 2015, so this standard is also being expired.

 

The decision was made after consulting with all organisations with consent to assess against them, including the one organisation that recorded the three results against 1585 during 2015 and 2016.

 

Category D unit standards will expire at the end of December 2018
