Seafood Māori unit standard review

 

All consent to assess holders were emailed in November 2020 asking for feedback on the three Level 2 unit standards.

 

Feedback was received in December from Arai Te Uru Kokiri Training Centre.  The unit standards are intended for use in Arai Te Uru Kokiri Training Centre, Whakamahi Whenua - Mahinga Kai programme in which there is a course involving fishing.  Arai Te Uru Kokiri Training Centre also have a Manaaki Tauira programme which will start as a Gateway option from term two 2021 and will include the three these standards that are to be retained.

 

Feedback was collated from kaiako directly involved with delivery and potential delivery of the standards, tumuaki responsible for initiating and monitoring delivery within programmes, and academic managers responsible for programme design and quality assurance of delivery.

 

Unit standards were updated with feedback, checked by Arai Te Uru Kokiri Training Centre Academic Manager, and finalised in February 2021.
