Full report What we learn

Industry Stakeholder and Advisory Work 

Karen Vaughan and Andrew Kear

The guide is part of a larger good practice toolkit that supports those involved in qualifications development and delivery to work with skill standards, which replaced unit standards in late 2023. Skill standards are now the compulsory components in learning programmes that lead to New Zealand national qualifications. The purpose of this guide is to clarify the system points at which industry stakeholders are involved, and the different purposes of those advisory conversations.
