The CII regularly reviews the range of qualifications and learning that it provides. Following a review, it has been decided that the level of interest in units J03 (The tax and legal aspects of business) and AF2 (Business financial planning) indicates that they are no longer a core part of the Diploma and Advanced Diploma journey for most learners.
