Summary of review and consultation process

The review of the qualification was carried out from October 2019 to April 2020.

It consisted of a preparatory stage when information was gathered, followed by an online survey and attestation-gathering.

Stakeholders involved in the review included national public health organisations, local government, public health service delivery organisations, primary health organisations, health promotion forums and agencies, education and training providers, specialist public health and health promotion organisations, workforce centres, and employers.

The recommendations from the various consultation events were analysed with proposed amended qualification outlines and sent back to stakeholders for comment and attestation.

 

Main changes resulting from the review

·         The qualification template was updated.

·         The graduate outcomes have been amended for clarification. ‘Guidance information’ and ‘conditions’ that were included in the previous version of the qualification document have been incorporated into the graduate outcome statements.
