Need electrical capstone assessments in 2024?

Waihanga Ara Rau coordinates the assessment material for unit standards 32619 and 29484, the “capstone” assessments for trainees at the end of years one and two, respectively. These WDC capstone assessments are the only valid assessment tools for these unit standards.

These assessments are intended to be completed by ākonga/learners off-job under exam conditions. They are not to be made publicly available.

Copies of Electrical Capstone Assessments will only be provided to one academic member for each Tertiary Education Organisation (or subsidiary). Requesters will be asked to verify they are the delegated staff member to request the assessment(s) and their organisation has CTA for the assessments requested.

Unless otherwise requested, assessment material will be available in June and November each year.

If your organisation would like copies of the assessment material, please complete this form.
