CISSP IT qualification - how many points?
Doing points calc and don't know how to classify this,i.e. what NZQS level. OH doesn't have a degree in IT. Is this likely to be a problem?
Thanks,
Marion

No, MrF didn't have a degree in IT, just meant he couldn't claim the points for it. He had a degree in another subject would he could claim points for (which a immigration advisor said he couldnt

His CISSP qual is the highest he has. Do you know what level he could claim for it? If not the top level then we don't have enough points without a job offer 😳

sorry not sure. It might have to be accessed but it might be best just to call up NZ Immigration and ask them what he needs to do with that qualification and the establishment he gained it from

I have e-mailed them. Thought I would be able to find it on the lists of quals that don't need assesed. After all, it is a world-wide recognised qualification that comes from one organisation only....but, no. It wasn't that simple!
