RoVE Updates September 22

The RoVE Project Team provided the following update today. 

On 4 October 2021 six Workforce Development Councils (WDCs) – being established through the Reform of Vocational Education - will take over the standard setting and qualification development functions that were previously delivered by Transitional Industry Training Organisations (TITOs). The WDC establishment team has been working closely with TITOs and NZQA to ensure the transition of these functions is as smooth as possible for providers and schools. 

The factsheet (click here/image) has been produced to provide transition information on the following functions:

  • Qualifications and standards
  • Consistency reviews
  • Interim programme support
  • National external moderation 
  • Consent to assess 
  • Consent and moderation requirements 

We hope this factsheet provides the information you need. If you have any questions prior to 4 October 2021, please email info@wdc.nz  After 4 October 2021, please refer to the WDC websites via: www.ohumahi.nz
