PC9193 Accreditation Decision

Mark Honeychurch made this Official Information request to New Zealand Qualifications Authority

The request was partially successful.

From: Mark Honeychurch

Dear New Zealand Qualifications Authority,

I am requesting information in regards to the course entitled "Certificate in Iridology (Level 4)", with the reference number PC9193. The URL for the course is stated directly below:

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

For the above course, could you please 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.

I confirm that I am a New Zealand citizen and I currently live in New Zealand, making me eligible to make requests under the Official Information Act.

Kind regards,

Mark Honeychurch

NZQA have said, over private emails and phone calls, that they wouldn't be able to collate the information requested in a timely fashion and so they asked me to change the various requests into one more generic request about the whole of the Alternative Health "cluster" of qualifications. The results of this request will be posted to Gold's original over-arching request:
