Toi Mai Workforce Development Council has completed the review of the standards listed above.

 

Date new versions published                                                               January 2025

 

Summary

 

Standards 20427 and 20668 in the Ecological Management domain were overdue for review. These standards have had very low usage, and consultation showed they are no longer relevant to industry.

 

Initial consultation was carried out with members of the conservation advisory group convened in October to develop new micro-credentials and skill standards for conservation. Wider sector consultation was then undertaken during October and November via the Toi Mai website and mailing lists.

 

Main changes

 

·      Both standards will expire without replacement.

 

Category D standards will expire at the end of December 2026
