Welcome to the Assessment Support Materials for Tikanga.
Tikanga unit standards focus on learners understanding the importance of tikanga values, processes and practices that are used by 惭腻辞谤颈. Tikanga concepts provide guidance for appropriate behaviour and conduct in 惭腻辞谤颈 society. Tikanga is categorised in three kaupapa: concepts, issues, and practices.
The resources on this page are designed to help teachers and tutors assess 膩konga against the relevant Tikanga unit standards listed in the Directory of Assessment and Skill Standards (DASS).
Assessors can use the assessment support material for the Tikanga unit standards to develop tasks and assessment schedules.

Te Iti a Taranga
We have considered the impacts of the Covid-19 virus on teaching, learning and assessment of unit standards for Tikanga, and in response the 惭腻辞谤颈 Qualifications Services (MQS) have developed five new unit standards (5 credits each at Level 3).
These new standards recognise the inherent skills and knowledge that 膩konga may already have or have developed over time.
