Summary of republication and consultation process

The extension of the last date for assessment (LDA) of superseded version 2 of the above qualification has been undertaken following request and discussion with education providers.

This 14-month extension to the LDA is to enable cohorts of enrolled learners/ākonga to complete version 2 of the qualification, and allow the sufficient time for providers to transition to version 3.

 

Main changes resulting from the republication process

The last date for assessment of version 2 of the qualification was extended from 30 April 2026 to 30 June 2027.
