The NZ Hairdressing ITO Inc (HITO) has completed the review of the unit standard above.
Date new version published
September 2013
Planned review date
December 2017
Summary
The review of this unit standard took place within the current sector review of Hairdressing
and Barbering qualifications that began in 2011. The unit standard content was developed
and endorsed by members of the Barbering Qualifications’ Advisory and Governance
Group in parallel with the development of the Application for Approval of the new barbering
qualifications.
The changes to the unit standard reflect the skills and knowledge required by stakeholders
for inclusion in a new Level 4 New Zealand Certificate in commercial barbering. In
addition, three new unit standards were developed to support the requirements of the
qualification outcomes.
Main changes to standard 10650
 Title and content were updated and expanded to include running a barber chair in a
commercial salon.
 Credits were increased to reflect the increased content and workload due to the
additional requirement relating to the running of a barber chair.
 Entry information was updated.
 Explanatory notes were updated for consistency with more recently listed unit
standards.
 Last dates for assessments of the superseded versions of the standard were specified.
The last date for assessment of superseded version 1 and 2 is December 2014
The last date for assessment of superseded version 3 is December 2016
