Summary of review and consultation process |
An External Working Group (EWG) was formed made up of industry representatives, TEOs with approved programmes, and Primary ITO staff. Meetings were held between December 2018 and July 2019 to review content, and updated documentation was also circulated for wider consultation over this period. Key changes discussed included a title change to reflect the wider primary industry sectors who have an interest in engaging with the qualification, and subsequently amended and clarified Graduate Profile Outcomes (GPOs) and revised credit values. The reviewed qualification was approved by the Primary ITO Portfolio Committee and the EWG in July 2019. |
