Summary

 

The review of the suite of Cadet Forces Specialist unit standards was undertaken between November 2019 - February 2020 to review and maintain currency.

 

A desk review was conducted with New Zealand Cadet Forces and Vanguard Military School as the main users of these unit standards.  These groups were also able to provide subject matter expertise which contributed to the review.

 

Main changes

 

·                Purpose statements were broadened to include learners who are interested in the New Zealand Defence Force.

·                References to manuals that are no longer in use were removed.

·                Performance criteria were changed from passive voice to active voice.

·                Title of standard 24110 was amended to better reflect the outcomes.

 

The last date for assessment of superseded versions of these Category B unit standards is December 2021
