Strategic Purpose Statement |
People holding the National Certificate in Administration of Revenue Law (Level 5) [Ref: 0708] have demonstrated competence in carrying out work at an intermediate level in relation to the Revenue Acts. This intermediate level involves dealing with issues which are addressed by legislation or policy, but still require careful research, skills and knowledge to decide individual cases.
The compulsory core of this qualification recognises generic skills required to carry out tax work. The skills covered here - using law, researching resources, decision-making and business writing - give candidates the ability to move on and deal with more specific areas of tax and social policy. Specific areas of tax and tax related social policy are covered by the elective parts of the qualification. Here candidates can tailor their qualification to suit individual specialisation and/or personal goals in areas such as income tax, GST and child support. The component unit standards of the qualification are based on the technical competency framework in place in Inland Revenue. The technical competencies focus on the skills and knowledge required to interpret and apply the Income Tax Act 1994 and other legislation administered by Inland Revenue. Inland Revenue's internal operational procedures are largely excluded, so the unit standards reflect the application of law in determining taxpayer obligations, liabilities and entitlements. This means the certificate, while recognising the skills and knowledge required within Inland Revenue, has relevance for people working with taxation in other environments such as accounting and business. The qualification leads on from the National Certificate in Administration of Revenue Law (Introduction) (Level 4) [Ref: 0950]. This certificate is a sound foundation for further study towards the National Diploma in Administration of Revenue Law [Ref: 0709] as all of the electives can be used to meet the requirements of the diploma, but this qualification is not a prerequisite for the diploma. Cross credits may be available from external programmes that have achieved the same outcomes of some unit standards in this qualification. |
