·      Four unit standards were reclassified from domains Primary Products Food Processing - Core Skills and Primary Products Food Processing - Operational Skills to domain Primary Sector Core Skills.

·      Titles of unit standards were amended in line with the reclassification.

·      Guidance information and performance criteria were checked and updated for currency.

 

The last date for assessment of superseded versions of Category B unit standards is December 2022
