The Primary ITO has completed the review of the unit standards listed above.
Date new versions published September 2021
Summary

Feedback was received from LASRA (NZ Leather and Shoe Research Association) on the completion status of past and present students. This feedback did not affect the pending expiry of unit standards.
Main changes
· Unit standards were expired due to little or no usage in the last two years, and no anticipated usage in the future.
