Waihanga Ara Rau Construction and Infrastructure Workforce Development Council has completed the review of the unit standards listed above.

Date new versions published                                                               April 2023

Summary

The standard setting responsibility for these unit standards was transferred to Waihanga Ara Rau Construction and Infrastructure Workforce Development Council from The Skills Organsation in October 2021.

Waihanga Ara Rau identified a group of unit standards which had little or no usage in the past five years and were no longer in current programmes.

Consultation occurred via email to providers with consent to assess these unit standards, Master Electricians’ newsletter, and online meetings during 2023.  There were no disagreements with the proposed expiry.

Main changes

· All unit standards were designated as expiring because they are no longer required.

Category D unit standards will expire at the end of December 2025
