What is a Unit Standard?

A unit standard simply describes what you need to know or be able to do to be assessed as competent in a particular skill area. National qualifications are made up of unit standards, which are set at different levels to indicate the degree of difficulty.

For each unit standard you gain and are assessed on, you gain credits. To achieve a national qualification, all you have to do is complete the required number of credits.

What is a National Qualification?

There are three kinds of national qualifications:

* National Certificates - Levels 1-4
* National Diplomas - Levels 5-6
* Degrees & Post Graduate Programmes - Levels 7-10

As you achieve your unit standards, your details are listed on a Record of Learning. This should be a link to access via the internet , held on a national database by NZQA, to keep track of your achievements.

You can accumulate credits over a number of years and from a variety of providers, until you have completed a qualification.
