Our role for qualifications and unit standards

We are responsible for developing and maintaining qualifications and developing, setting, and maintaining unit standards for the industries in our coverage area.

These qualifications and standards were previously managed by Transitional Industry Training Organisations and NZQA National Qualifications Services, and have now been transferred to Toi Mai.

Identifying which qualifications and unit standards have been transferred to Toi Mai

All qualifications and standards have been updated on NZQA’s system and you can find out which ones have been transferred to Toi Mai by searching NZQA’s website:

• For qualifications, search for the qualification by keyword or qualification number on the NZQF. Click on the qualification to view the name of the current qualification developer.
• For standards, search for the unit standard by number (or via field/subfield/domain) on the Directory of Assessment Standards. The name of the current standard-setting body is displayed on the resulting screen. Note: the individual Word and PDF documents relating to the standard will still show the previous standard setting body’s details.

Support for providers developing programmes for our qualifications

A range of guidance documents are available to support providers developing programmes that lead to the award of one of our qualifications. A full list is available here.
