Summary
In March 2022 a wide range of industry members (11 companies) and all providers with consent to assess were contacted and invited to participate in the review. It was the intention of the review to maintain the usefulness of the unit standards in the interim until they are replaced by skill standards. Feedback was received on the suitability of the standards for the purposes of the industry. Several standards had not been used and were designated to expire. The changes were notified to the group and no further changes were required.
Main changes
· Legislation updated for unit standard 410, 11969, 11988.
· Range amended in 11981.
· Range amended to remove redundancy for unit standard 22102.
· Guidance information and references updated for unit standards 26556 and 26557.
Category D unit standards will expire at the end of December 2024
