Summary of review and consultation process
During 2011, a mandatory sector review of qualifications in the Hospitality sector, including
Marae Catering, occurred. The review for Marae Catering was considered a specialist
area and was conducted separately from the ServiceIQ (Service Industry Qualifications,
formerly the Hospitality Standards Institute) led review of Cooking and Catering
qualifications. However, Service IQ are a stakeholder in the Marae Catering review and
were included in consultations. The review also encompassed broad consultation with
representatives from secondary schools, private training establishments, Skills Active ITO,
business operators, polytechnics, and marae – to ensure that the new qualifications meet
current and future needs.
The review resulted in a recommendation that the National Certificate in Marae Catering
(Level 2) [Ref: 1165] be designated expiring and replaced by the New Zealand Certificate
in Manaaki Marae – Te Kāuta, Te Wharekai (Kaupae 2). It also recommended that three
new qualifications be developed at Levels 3 to 5, in order to meet the needs identified in
the Needs Analysis.
