Version 2 of the New Zealand Certificate in Electricity Supply (Operation) with an optional strand in Hydro Operation (Level 4) was published in 2023 following a scheduled review with following minor changes:

• Wording to the Strategic Purpose Statement and Graduate Profile Outcomes (GPO) to improve clarity.
• GPO Credit values amended to reflect current practice.

Connexis is required to update the current Programme to the latest version to reflect the changes made to the qualification and is requesting endorsement from industry that the existing programme will continue to meet the needs of people who work within the Electricity Supply industry.

Industry consultation undertaken endorsed the current programme as remaining fit for purpose with the addition of a unit standard exemption table (see here).

Please note that focused reviews of unit standard content/outcomes are beyond the scope of this process, but any such feedback you provide will be collated and raised with the incoming Industry Skills Boards.

Your feedback must be received by 5pm, Wednesday 8th October 2025.
