Summary
As a result of the review of the New Zealand Certificate in Primary Industry Operational Skills (Level 3) with optional strand in Specialist Equipment and Infrastructure [Ref: 2215-2] Qualification process, Primary ITO has reviewed these unit standards to better reflect the requirements of the outcomes listed in new qualifications.
A consultation was held in late September 2018 where providers with consent to assess had the opportunity to give feedback via an online survey. This feedback was addressed where appropriate.
Main changes
· 17 unit standards were reviewed.
· Unit standards were updated into the current NZQA unit standard template.
· Amendments were made to ensure unit standards remained fit for purpose and reflected industry standards.
· A new Hydraulic ladder unit standard was developed to meet industry requirements for fruit harvesting.
The last date for assessment for previous versions of category B unit standards is December 2021
