MITO New Zealand Incorporated has completed the review of the unit standards listed above, which are coversheets for Australian Units of Competency.

 

Date new versions published                                                               July 2019

 

Summary

 

MITO New Zealand Incorporated undertook analysis of currently listed Drilling Industry unit standard coversheets and identified a number that are no longer being used, have not been awarded in four years or longer.  The decision was made to expire these units as they no longer align with industry need.

 

Main changes

 

 

These Category D units will expire at the end of December 2019

 

Detailed list of units – classification, title, level, and credits

 

Key to review category

A

Dates changed, but no other changes are made - the new version of the standard carries the same ID and a new version number

B

Changes made, but the overall outcome remains the same - the new version of the standard carries the same ID and a new version number

C

Major changes that necessitate the registration of a replacement standard with a new ID

D

Standard will expire and not be replaced
