·         Expiring standard 23396 was removed from the compulsory section.

·         Three credits were added to the requirements for Set 1 of Elective A to compensate for the deletion.

 

Transition

 

People currently working towards version 5 of this qualification may choose to complete the requirements for that version or transfer their results to the new version 6 of the qualification.
