From: Gold

Dear New Zealand Qualifications Authority,

I would like information about a subset of the courses that have been accredited by NZQA, listed under the subheading “complementary therapies”, that can be found in the link provided below:

http://www.nzqa.govt.nz/nzqf/search/resu...

For each of these courses, please can you supply me with a copy of all the work that went into the decision making process to award the course with accreditation. I am interested in how each decision was made, who made the decision, what factors were considered, who was consulted and what changes, if any, were made to the course before accreditation was awarded.

For reference, here is a full list of the NZQA accredited courses, listed by number, of which I am requesting information:
