MITO New Zealand Incorporated (trading as MITO) has completed the review of the unit standards listed above.
Date new versions published April 2021
Planned review date December 2025
Summary
MITO reviewed and revised motor industry unit standards to ensure they are fit-for-purpose for the industry sectors.
MITO was supported by the motor industry’s working groups including subject matter experts and MITO representatives. The standards were circulated to the working groups’ networks, and a consultation period was held. Feedback received was actioned where appropriate.
Main changes
· Purpose statements, guidance information, references, outcomes, performance criteria, and range statements were amended to ensure they are current, accurate and fit for purpose, reflect the standard content and to ensure clarity for users.
· Unit standard 24191 with little use over the past five years was set to expire without replacement as it no longer reflects the learning and assessment needs of industry.
· Titles of unit standards 247, 397, 2314, 2324, 2347, 19305, 21679, 23805, 23844, 24178, 24180, 24185, 24268, 24343, 24346, 24445 were amended to enhance readability and better reflect the purpose.
Category D unit standard will expire at the end of December 2022
