Summary
The review of these unit standards was initiated through their scheduled review and the

The unit standards were reviewed to ensure that they are fit for purpose and relevant to
the Tourism Māori industry and meet graduate profile outcomes of the new Tourism Māori
qualifications.
All changes were endorsed by stakeholders and the Tourism Māori Whakaruruhau.
