Our Quality Assurance and Enhancement team will be holding a series of online professional development workshops this year. The workshops are for schools and providers that deliver and assess food and fibre unit standards.
The national external moderation system provides assurance in the quality of programme delivery and assessment. Learn more about moderation activities and focus areas for 2023, the pre-, and post-moderation process, and moderation appeals.
Muka Tangata is responsible for quality assurance activities with providers who develop and deliver their own programmes. Learn more about our new approach to quality assurance, research into best practice, and direction for 2023.
Providers applying to NZQA for consent to assess must supply a letter of support from their relevant Workforce Development Council. Learn more about how to apply, and consent and moderation requirements.
Providers applying to NZQA for programme approval and accreditation must supply a letter of endorsement from their relevant Workforce Development Council. Learn more about how to apply, and consent and moderation requirements.
Muka Tangata is responsible for developing and maintaining qualifications, micro-credentials and standards for the food and fibre industries. Learn more about our role for qualifications, which qualifications have been transferred to Muka Tangata, and skill standards.
Unit Standard interpretations are designed to give additional guidance to Assessors to align older aspects of certain unit standards with current industry practice. They are an interim measure to be applied until such time as the unit standard in question is reviewed in full. Learn more about Unit Standard interpretation.
Ākonga Māori find more success when systems consider and cater to their diverse needs, however we have heard from our partners that successful Māori-centric models are not sufficiently widely known or accessible, so are not being replicated. Learn more about proven models and practices, and how you can develop your own systems to better work for Māori ākonga (learners) and kaimahi (staff).
WDC support is now required before education providers can seek approval from NZQA (New Zealand Qualifications Authority) for micro-credentials. Learn more about the micro-credential registering process, and how to apply.
