Summary of review and consultation process |
|
Muka Tangata received feedback from providers requesting the Last Date of Enrolment and Last Date of Assessment be extended for the Animal Technology qualifications above. Restrictions through Covid have meant that they have a significant number of learners enrolled who are now studying part time, due to the difficulties over the last two years of having face to face classes. Covid restrictions have also meant that learners have been unable to complete the practical work experience components of their qualifications. |
|
