NZQA National Qualifications Services has completed the review of the unit standards listed above.

 

Date new versions published                                                               December 2019

 

Summary

 

The 22 unit standards in Subfield Marketing were recommended for expiry as part of a scheduled review and following research for the review of Business qualifications that identified their low and declining usage.

 

Stakeholders were informed and none objected to the proposal to recommend the standards for expiry.  The review of the Marketing and Sales strands in the New Zealand Diplomas in Business and the development of specific unit standards to support the strands have been postponed pending greater use of the strands themselves.

 

Main changes

 

·      All the unit standards are designated expiring without replacement due to low usage.

 

These Category D unit standards will expire at the end of December 2022
