Withdrawal of Dip. for Information Security Professionals (GJ74 48)
The Diploma for Information Security Professionals at level 8 (GJ74 48) has been withdrawn from our portfolio as of 7 January 2026. The qualification was already in lapsing period and due to expire in December 2026. However, following conversations between Qualifications Scotland and SDS, it was agreed the qualification could be withdrawn earlier, without exhausting the lapsing period.
