Māori Qualifications Services – NZQA (MQS) has completed the review of the unit standards listed above.
Date new versions published March 2022
Planned review date December 2026
Summary
In line with their planned review cycle, these unit standards were reviewed to ensure they remain fit for purpose, relevant, and that their outcomes are achievable and consistent with assessment practices.
Main changes
· Title changes were made to unit standards 2574, 2576, 2580, 2594, 2595, 2596, 2597, 2584 and 31533 for clarity, currency, and relevance to whakairo.
· Credit value for unit standard 2595 was increased from 6 to 10 credits to reflect the addition of a range to Outcome 4 requiring additional mahi, and consistency to similar unit standards.
· Credit value for unit standard 2596 was increased from 8 to 10 to reflect the mahi requirement in sourcing traditional resources and for consistency to similar unit standards.
· Credit value for unit standard 31533 was decreased from 15 to 12 to reflect removal of Outcomes 3 and 4. Whakaruruhau considered the unit standard would be an improved product for delivery.
· Outcome statements in unit standard 2572 were re-ordered to reflect sequence of a formal welcome.
· Unit standard 2573 - whakatauākī inserted with whakataukī to acknowledge the difference between nouns where the person who uttered the proverb first is known or unknown.
· Minor grammatical changes and words replaced throughout standards for clarity, currency, and relevance to whakairo.
· Unit standards 2561, 2565, 2566, 2567, 2568, 2562, 2569, 2599, 2586, 2588, 2589, 2590, 2592, 2600, 2591 and 2593 will expire. The Whakaruruhau considered the levels are too high and the standards have not been used in the past five years.
Category D unit standards will expire at the end of December 2023
