We are working with Pork NZ and partners to review two key qualifications for the industry group.
The qualification and unit standards associated with the qualifications have now passed their scheduled review date, so this is an opportunity to investigate whether they are still fit for purpose.
We will draw on the expertise of industry to ensure that the qualifications, and any standards that we review or develop, serve the needs of ākonga/learners and are up to date with current industry requirements.
Project scope:
Key milestones:
To ensure timely processing of pre-moderation, consent to assess, microcredential support and programme endorsement applications before the disestablishment of Muka Tangata, we encourage providers to submit all relevant assessment materials and applications by October 3, 2025.
We will continue to process applications after this date, but we cannot guarantee they will be completed before Muka Tangata finishes operations on 19 December 2025. Any in-flight submissions will be handed over to the newly established Industry Skills Board for completion.
We encourage you to contact us at the earliest opportunity if you have any questions about this, or want to discuss any proposed submissions.
