Competenz has completed the review of the unit standards listed above.
Date new versions published July 2021
Summary
These
unit standards were reviewed between October and December 2020 as part of the qualification and programme review for
Mechanical Engineering qualifications.
This review was
completed in consultation with stakeholders, particularly past users of these
unit standards and those organisations holding consent to assess. These
stakeholders confirmed there was no intention to use these unit standards going
forward, and are no longer needed by industry, therefore recommending expiry.
Main changes
· All unit standards were set to expire without replacement as they are no longer required.
These Category D unit standards will expire at the end of December 2023
