Assessment and Certification Rules and Procedures for Secondary Schools - 2008

7.4 Credit Inclusion

  1. The NCEAs have provision for recognition of credit equivalents from other qualifications that are quality assured.

  2. The New Zealand Qualifications Authority publishes an approved list of qualifications recognised for credit inclusion.

  3. Credit equivalents from credit inclusion do not appear on the Record of Achievement. They may be used only once and do not contribute to the University Entrance level 3 requirements, except for The Waikato Certificate of Studies, English, which can contribute to the university entrance writing requirement (2.1 and 3.1) and the reading requirement (2.2 and 3.2).

  4. If a school wishes to access credit inclusion for any students it should complete the appropriate form and send it to The New Zealand Qualifications Authority with the applicable student results.

  5. Applications may be submitted for qualifications from the approved list which were gained up to two years prior to the year of application for credit inclusion.
