I depends on what you are referring to as an advanced diploma. If this is from outside of the US, and considered secondary school (high school in the US), then yes the next step would be a bachelor's degree in engineering.
No. You need a four year college degree in engineering.
The South African N Diploma in Engineering is generally considered a technical qualification that provides practical skills and knowledge in specific engineering fields. It is typically not equivalent to a Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, which involves a broader theoretical understanding and is often required for professional engineering registration. While the N Diploma may allow for entry-level positions in the engineering sector, a Bachelor’s degree is usually necessary for more advanced roles and professional licensure.
any diploma can never be equivalent to bech degree ..i am a engineering technologist frm Canada and most of the universities don't even give you much credits towards your degree. So the answer is NO 100%

An advanced diploma is a level 8 award a bachelor degree is a elvel 7 [Pass] or level 8 [hons] An advanced diploma is not a commonly used term in the United States and means different things in different countries. So there's really no way to compare. Bachelor's degrees themselves vary in duration.
After completing a diploma in chemical engineering, you can pursue a Bachelor’s degree in Chemical Engineering or related fields such as Process Engineering, Biochemical Engineering, or Environmental Engineering.

Some institutions also offer advanced diplomas or certifications in specific technologies or management related to chemical processes.
In Rwanda, a bachelor's degree is an undergraduate academic qualification typically awarded after three to four years of study at a university, focusing on comprehensive knowledge in a specific field. An advanced diploma, on the other hand, is a vocational qualification that usually requires one to two years of study and is more practice-oriented, preparing students for specific careers or trades. While a bachelor's degree may lead to higher academic pursuits like a master's degree, an advanced diploma often emphasizes immediate employability in the workforce.
Yes, a Higher Diploma is typically considered higher than a Higher National Diploma (HND). The Higher Diploma usually represents a more advanced level of study, often equivalent to a bachelor's degree or a postgraduate qualification. In contrast, an HND is a vocational qualification that is usually at the level of the second year of a bachelor's degree. Therefore, the Higher Diploma generally requires more advanced knowledge and skills.
No, a bachelor's degree is not considered a professional degree. Professional degrees are typically advanced degrees that are required for specific professions, such as law, medicine, or engineering.

A diploma at TAFE is a course that takes between 1 (if you're taking fast tracking options) to 1 and a half years to complete. It provides basic classes and lessons that should prepare you for the advanced diploma, assuming you do not drop out after a diploma. An advanced Diploma is usually a 2 year course that covers much harder topics and is more extensive. Advanced Diplomas have the benefit of giving people a much higher chance of getting into Uni than a Diploma. But if you're a high achiever with a Diploma then the chances should both be equal. For example, I am doing Mechanical Engineering as a Diploma and I take Math Basic classes rather than Advanced Mathematics classes. If I get 90+% overall then my chances are equal to that of an advanced diploma into University.
In Europe, the engineering diploma is like a master degree.
