Connexis Infrastructure ITO has completed the review of the unit standards listed above.
Date new versions published January 2019
Summary
The unit standards were identified as overdue for review. Checks of usage showed that the standards had received little or no usage in the last 3 years and are not included in any current Connexis programmes. A list of standards was circulated among relevant industry stakeholders in October 2018, and any standards identified as no longer needed were reviewed with the intention to expire them from the Directory of Assessment Standards.
Main changes
· All standards were designated expiring and reissued as new versions with an expiry date included.
· References in guidance information and within individual standards were updated.
· Standard setting body information and contact details were updated.
Category D unit standards will expire at the end of December 2020
