Summary of development/review and consultation process |
These qualifications were reviewed in July 2024. An early Last Date of Assessment (LDA) for version 2 was set for all qualifications, as it was thought there were no approved programmes. However, a Tertiary Education Organisation was delivering that version. The TEO has requested an extension for the Last Date of Assessment for the superseded version 2 of the qualifications, so as not to disadvantage their learners who are completing programmes leading to version 2 of the qualifications. The LDA of version 2 now aligns with version 1. The Strategic Reference Group, Tactical Reference Group and Technical Advisory considered the extension was appropriate to allow for learners to complete their training programme. |
Main changes resulting from the development/review process |
The last date of assessment for superseded version 2 of the qualifications above has been extended from 31 December 2024 to 31 December 2028. |
