The Ringa Hora Services Workforce Development Council has completed the review of the unit standards listed above.
Date new versions published December 2022
Summary
Ringa Hora reviewed the five Public Sector Core Skills standards listed with the purpose of determining whether the standards were useful and relevant to the sector. Four of the five standards have had no use reported in the last four years, with the fifth standard (23269) having reported use of 1 only. The associated qualifications have also been reviewed and are proposed to expire 31 December 2024:
· New Zealand Certificate in Public Sector Practice (Level 3) [Ref: 3635]
· New Zealand Certificate in Public Sector Practice (Level 4) [Ref: 3636]
· New Zealand Certificate in the Use of Data and Statistics for Policy Development (Level 5) [Ref: 3637]
· New Zealand Certificate in Public Sector Management (Level 5) [Ref: 3638]
· New Zealand Diploma in Public Sector Leadership (Level 6) [Ref: 3639]
Consultation on the proposed expiry of the qualifications and unit standards was undertaken in November 2022, and there were no objections from the sector to this suite of Level 5 Public Sector Core Skills unit standards being expired.
