Changes to the New Zealand Qualifications and Credentials Framework (NZQCF) and 色诱直播 Rules will come into effect on 1 July 2025.
鈥淭he updated NZQCF contains revised level descriptors and qualification type descriptions, along with a new visual representation,鈥� says 色诱直播 Deputy Chief Executive, Quality Assurance, Eve McMahon.
An updated NZQCF Booklet reflecting the changes is available from 色诱直播鈥檚 website.
Five Rule sets have been updated to align with the NZQCF changes. These are:
- Micro-credential Approval and Accreditation Rules
- Private Training Establishment Registration Rules
- Programme Approval, Recognition and Accreditation Rules
- Qualification and Micro-credential Listing and Operational Rules
- Student Fee Protection Rules
Updated Rules are available on the 色诱直播 website.
鈥淲hile these changes come into effect on 1 July 2025, a 6-month transition period means that qualifications, micro-credentials or programmes currently under development can still be approved under the old descriptors up until the end of the year,鈥� Ms McMahon says.
鈥淭ertiary providers should contact us if they need more than 6 months to complete work in progress,鈥� Ms McMahon says.
色诱直播 consulted on changes to the NZQCF and Rules late last year.
