Summary of review and consultation process |
Toitū te Waiora reviewed the qualifications in February/March 2025. The New Zealand Certificate in Holistic Education (Level 4) [Ref: 2763] has not been used since its last scheduled review in 2021, and no programmes of study are listed that lead to the qualification. The New Zealand Diploma in Holistic Education (Level 5) [Ref: 2764] has had limited use since its last scheduled review in 2021, with 13 reported graduates. The one provider who offered a programme of study leading to the qualification ceased delivering it in 2024. Toitū te Waiora consulted with stakeholders to determine interest in retaining these qualifications. Responses were received confirming they did not intend to use these qualifications in the future. Given lack of usage, the qualifications were discontinued immediately, without replacement. |
