Summary
Hanga-Aro-Rau Manufacturing, Engineering and Logistics Workforce Development Council reviewed the commercial road transport and driving unit standards to ensure they were fit-for-purpose for the industry sectors.
Hanga-Aro-Rau was supported by commercial road transport and driver education working groups, including subject matter experts and industry association representatives which formed an advisory group, to review the outdated unit standards. Four meetings were conducted over the period March to April 2022 involving advisory group members who offered feedback on these unit standards. The reviewed unit standards were endorsed for listing by the advisory group in April 2022.
