Next review date

Summary of review and consultation process

The last date of assessment leading to version 1 of this qualification has been extended.  

This is to accommodate the learners who will be unable to complete learning and assessment before the previous last date of assessment for version 1 due to the restrictions and impacts of COVID-19 throughout the country.

As this is such a niche industry, the course can only be run at certain times of the year when tutors and equipment are available and so learners will need to do these block courses at a later stage which will go beyond 31 December 2022 due to the learning progression of their apprenticeship.

 

Main changes resulting from the review

The last date of assessment for version 1 of this qualification has been extended from 31 December 2022 to 31 December 2024

The qualification has been revised to reflect this date.

The Qualification Developer was updated from Competenz to Hanga-Aro-Rau Manufacturing, Engineering and Logistics Workforce Development Council.

Any additional information

 

Version 2 of the qualification was published in July 2021, and republished in July 2022 to extend the late date for assessment of version 1.

 

People enrolled in version 1 of this qualification will need to complete by the 31 December 2024 or transfer to the replacement New Zealand qualification version. 

 

It is anticipated that no existing candidates will be disadvantaged by these transition arrangements.
