Hi Sylvia – I have always said their statistics are un-reliable. Among others, one of my biggest frustrations is still, that self employed learners have to be listed as unemployed. This is so wrong and gives a totally skewed picture of employment in SA.

No idea – sorry. It all seems gibberish to me.

They just said ‘soon’.

Was also told they have dropped the requirement for DHET registration, but QCTO still happening. Not sure who the DHET ‘no longer’ applies to, but they said we were one of those it no longer applies to. So maybe its not the DHET system they are referring to.

We are with CATHSSETA and have been using electronic POE’s for 2 years now.

I just do whatever I think correct. Many times it will not accept what I want to put there so just put something it does accept. In reality in my opinion, not of this data can be relied on as the system has been terribly designed and everyone I have spoken to says they are just making up stuff to add, just to be able to get it to go through.

CATHSSETA – No user guide I know of and I did ask….

Yes Indicium – Why is there not a user guide?

Hi Lynel

Don’t like to always sound pessimistic, but, been there, done that, seven plus years of correspondence and promises but nothings changed.

My hope is still that one day someone will take this seriously, but I am too tired to carry on on my own.

Thanx Lynel –

Concerned though about the ‘Secondly’ point. What about skills programmes and qualifications that ARE being used, but SETAs have never uploaded achievements to the NLRD. SAQA sees these as ‘No Uptake’ which is of course incorrect, and they will be lost to users through no fault of their own.

We as a provider lost a whole lot of…[Read more]

Hi Kate

Thanx – I would have thought it would have been resolved before roll out. This is fundamental functionality. I now sit with more than 50 learners I cannot get paid for, as the funder requires the registration numbers before paying.

Can I please apply as a tester/bug finder for the system? 🙂

Thanx Lynel – So I will just ignore it.

Does anyone form any SETA managed to get registration numbers from the system. I cannot.

Please help to understand this…
