Accreditation, evaluation and recognition
Recorded per program and campus, with the authority’s role. Accreditation, professional validation, degree-awarding authority and eligibility toward registration are different things; none of them is full professional registration, and a qualification accepted in one jurisdiction is not automatically accepted elsewhere.
New Zealand Diploma in Veterinary Nursing (Companion Animal)
Stated by the schoolAllied Veterinary Professional Regulatory Council of New ZealandEligibility toward registrationNZ
Scope: Graduates are eligible for voluntary registration as stated by Unitec; the council's own list of approved qualifications was not checked
Further requirements: Registration is voluntary and made with the council after graduation.
The qualification is recognised as meeting the educational requirement toward registration in the stated jurisdiction. Full registration also needs the other steps the authority lists, and recognition in one country does not guarantee registration in another.
