It is equivalent to the Two years of a 3 year UK Bachelor (Hons) degree as per the British qualification framework which gives the direct entry to graduates in the final year of the Bachelor (Hons) degree in the UK universities.
This HND qualification is the foremost preference of college leavers who want to complete a fast- track international qualification and to start with an entry level or an intermediate level employment.
The HND in Cyber Security programme provides a career path for learners who wish to develop their core capabilities within the cyber security and risk management sector. This qualification is potentially unique because it is about ‘cyber security’ as a workplace management discipline. It is therefore a semi technical qualification that examines technical cyber security measures as well as the management, project management and leadership skills required to organise internal and external business responses to major incidents. The programme utilises many case studies from business organisations and embeds isomorphic learning into its technical education.
The qualification is ideal for those who have started, or are planning to move into, a career in private or public sector business. Successful completion of the HND in Cyber Security qualification will provide learners with the opportunity to progress to further study or employment.
