Tēnā koe ā ki ā koutou I am writing this email to you in my capacity as the Chair of the Governance Group for the Targeted Review of Information Management and Services qualifications. This review is part of the New Zealand Qualifications Authority (NZQA) review of all qualifications at levels 1-6 (i.e., up to but not including bachelors’ degrees). The aim of this NZQA review is to reduce any duplication of qualifications and ensure the system is easy to understand, and also to ensure the qualifications meet the needs of the relevant sector. Information and library studies qualifications, including those in records, archives and information management, are part of this review. Eight qualifications have been drafted by industry sector representatives, based on a needs analysis. We are seeking your feedback on these draft qualifications. It is important that you provide feedback as the new qualifications will supersede existing qualifications. In addition, they will be national qualifications and any provider accredited by NZQA will be able to offer them. Please follow this linkhttps://imsqualreview.wordpress.com/https://imsqualreview.wordpress.com/http... to: · Background information about the process · The proposed qualifications · FAQs · The online survey for your feedback The survey will be open from Friday 4 July to Friday 25th of July. Thank you in anticipation.
