Work is still on-going by SDS and SQA to redevelop the qualification frameworks. We are currently working on the Level 8 Diploma in Digital Technology which will replace the existing Level 8 diplomas in information security and data analysis. We are expecting that the other diplomas will also be revised in the future.
Please contact me if you have any queries regarding this.
