Targeted review of qualifications – what is it?

A targeted review of qualifications at levels 1-6 was undertaken during 2009 which identified:

• qualification system was not understood by learners, parents,

employers and others

• too many qualifications and duplication
• pathways to further education and employment not clear
• high cost of developing qualifications

Targeted review of Qualifications

Led to the most significant changes to the qualifications system since the National Qualifications Framework was established in the early 1990s Changes include:

• Simplifying the qualifications system-New Zealand Qualifications

Framework

• Ensuring qualifications are fit-for-purpose and relevant
• Reducing the number of qualifications by removing duplication and

proliferation

New Zealand qualifications - what has changed?

Since late 2010 New Zealand qualifications have been replacing local provider and National qualifications at levels 1 – 6

• Qualifications based on industry or community workforce needs
• Clear and structured graduate outcomes
• Identified education and employment pathways
• Qualifications are developed collaboratively
• Flexible programmes to meet learner needs

What happens in a review?

Pre-work

• Gather information to determine sector workforce needs and skills
• Stakeholder Profile
• Determine governance and working structures

Review phase 1

• Prepare and confirm a revised map or ‘suite of qualifications’
• Prepare new qualifications for pre-approval – to be “good enough”
• Report on learning and the “story” of the decisions made to NZQA

Review phase 2

• Complete qualification development

What a new qualification looks like

• Qualification details e.g. Title, type, level, credits and NZSCEd etc
• Strategic Purpose Statement
• Outcome Statement e.g. Graduate profile, education and

employment pathways

• Specification

– ensures there is sufficient information for programme developers to meet the graduate profile – differentiates mandatory and optional conditions for qualification and/or individual outcomes
