Summary
These standards in domains Self-Management, Social and Cooperative Skills, and Work and Study Skills were reviewed as part of their regular quality-management cycle. Stakeholders were informed and invited to be involved. A panel was convened, representative of stakeholders, who drafted amendments to the standards and submitted them to stakeholders for comment. There was consensus approval for the draft amended standards following public consultation in November 2022.
