Consultation Workshop to review Information Security Qualifications and Apprenticeship Frameworks

You are invited to attend and contribute to a workshop to review the content and structure of the SQA Competence Based Qualifications in Information Security. The workshop will also consider the impact of any proposed changes on the Modern and Technical Apprenticeship Frameworks which incorporate these qualifications.
This review has been triggered by:
a) Expiry of the current qualifications in March 2017; and
b) The publication of revised National Occupational Standards in Information Security.
In addition, there will be the opportunity to discuss the wider provision of vocational qualifications and apprenticeships in the IT and Digital sector.
