ServiceIQ has completed the review of the unit standards listed above.
Date new versions published March 2020
Planned review date December 2024
Summary
This is the third set of a wider review of all unit standards in the Aeronautical Engineering subfield. The review was undertaken in consultation with the Aeronautical Engineering industry which included Air New Zealand, Royal New Zealand Air Force, Air New Zealand Engine Workplace, and Nelson Marlborough Institute of Technology to, ensure the standards’ relevance, as the technology associated with aircraft has become more sophisticated. The consultation for the review took place in May 2019. The initial meeting was held at ServiceIQ in Wellington with industry around a table. The standards were taken back to the workplace and suggestions were made to ServiceIQ regarding changes to be incorporated.
Main changes
· Unit standards were transferred to the current template and terminology was updated accordingly.
· Some range statements were amended to allow items listed to be optional rather than mandatory.
· Stems of some of range statements were amended.
Detailed list of unit standards – classification, title, level, and credits
All changes are in bold.
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 |
