You must be registered with each individual SETA as an assessor and be approved to assess specific unit standards and/or qualidications with each.

I want to understand that if a unit standard is in a qualification used in a different SETA e.g. not a specific SETA, does thats stop it to be an applicable unit standard.

I agree with Tass, it is the SPs to provide PP to facilitator if I need to add I can add to what they will have provided or edit. If they don’t provide then ask the R800 for preparation of PP.

A report by the Organisation for Economic and Cultural Development (OECD), demonstrates very clearly to us exactly how big our challenge is – and how important it is for us to make progress on implementation.

Written by Dr Hannes Nel, MBL; D. Com; D. Phil
In our current day and age neoliberalism largely rendered liberalism obsolete. Even so, liberalism is still a relevant paradigm.
Liberalism advocates tolerance, […]

Thank you Hannes. I read with interest, and I have a question and a request please.
I see your comment about constructivism as variant of liberalism. I had not seen that. Is that a generally accepted view?
Then a request please. Your last paragraph I think, leads into a discussion of a post-colonial epistemology. Could you engage with that please? -
Thank you so much for your explanation. That becomes much clearer for me.
I am interested in your distinction of academics representing an etic or emic approach in post-colonial studies.
So following that distinction & taking it further – would it be correct in studying the apartheid years to be able to distinguish older students with a emic approach and young students with an etic approach?-
Hello Sylvia, Thank you for being interested in my postings. The difference between an emic and etic approach lies in the way in which the researcher approaches his or her target group for the research. An emic approach would be if the researcher investigates her or his target group “from the inside”. This would mean that the researcher is included in the target for the research. An etic approach would be if the researcher is not included in the research target and do the research “from the outside”.
If I were to do research on, say, the eating habits of people in Australia, I would need to follow an etic approach because I do not live in Australia. I would conduct the research “from the outside” and I would write a report on “them”. If I were to do the same research on people living in South Africa, it can include me because I live in South Africa, and I would then write a report on “us”. That would be an emic approach.-
Hannes thank you – yes I understand.

I just wish for once they would see through some of the plans already in place and not continue to introduce new plans. Nothing ever seems to materialise and be brought to conclusion.

The idea was that an unaccredited provider, with perhaps limited resources to achieve their own accreditation, may use a JV/SLA with an accredited provider on provision that the unaccredited provider must fall under the accredited providers QMS. This would…[Read more]
