NFQ Level 7 Diploma?

Redneck Avenger · 2023-12-29 22:44:41

I'm currently doing my NFQ Level7 Diploma in DBS which I applied to via Springboard. My question is that on the NFQ site, Diploma is not listed as Level 7. Only a Higher Diploma at Level 8. What does this mean for my qualification which I hope to get in April 24? Will it be recognised?

I think the framework is wrong, higher diploma and ordinary degree are level 7.

I believe in the NFQ a HDip is Level 8 and in the EQF its Level 7
