Moderators’ Interpretations

Moderators’ interpretations remain in place until a review of the standard is completed.

Unit Standard 10026 (version 7) – Demonstrate knowledge of mokopuna/children’s holistic development and learning in an early childhood setting – level 3, 6 credits

See the interpretation here.

Unit Standards 29765 – Remove non-friable asbestos – Level 4; 29766 – Remove friable asbestos – Level 4

Guidance Information 1 in the current version of unit standards 29765 and 29766 refer to the Australian Training Standard CPCCDE3014A, which has been superseded. Therefore, the information in Guidance Information 1 is no longer applicable. From 14 March 2023, learners will need to enter training to complete the unit standards without consideration of any prior training completed in Australia.

Unit Standard 32385 – Apply enabling good lives principles that may present a barrier in certain situations

Toitū te Waiora as the standard-setting body has become aware of a criterion in relation to unit standard 32385 – Apply enabling good lives principles that may present a barrier in certain situations.

The criterion in the guidance information note number 2 on assessment currently indicates that personal plans are to be included for two different people.

It was felt this expectation may not be achievable in all care contexts. It was felt therefore better to remove it. This change will be reflected in a new version of this standard.

  • A requirement of assessors to work with their learners to be aware of the potential risks associated with the use of pressure relieving mattresses.
  • An additional risk factor to be included in PC3.2 to include ‘trapping’ as well as the two risks that need to be identified from the existing range statement.
