We value your input and are aware of how difficult the current COVID-19 climate is for everyone working in the community, health, education, and social service sectors.

It will be ideal to meet kanohi ki te kanohi (face to face) to review this qualification, however, much of the review is likely to be conducted online. Any decision to meet kanohi ki te kanohi will be driven by the Ministry of Health guidelines.
