Summary of review and consultation process
The unit standards listed above were reviewed as part of the Māori Qualifications Services
review cycle, to ensure that the standards are still fit for purpose and applicable to current
issues.
Contact was made with all the education organisations accredited to assess against these
unit standards but for various reasons which included – no longer required, did not fit into
programmes, no interest from students – there was little usage of these unit standards
since the last review.
Members from the Governance of Māori Authorities Whakaruruhau met in August 2008
and March 2009 to review the standards.
Comments and recommendations from all parties present were incorporated throughout
the review process.
The final versions of the standards were sent out for endorsement and further changes
were made on the basis of feedback.
