Hi Archie, while I do not know your exact circumstances, nor the course / site where your training was taking place, the feedback I received today from DHET was that it is possible for you to resume training. This is feedback given by Ms Aruna Singh from the DHET. Please visit the APPETD Facebook site for a full report on the “Coffee Chat Session…[Read more]

I would like to just give brief feedback from the meeting that APPETD had today with Aruna Singh (DHET DDG: Technical & Vocational Education and Training Colleges). The meeting was attended by just under 100 people that included APPETD members as well as non-members that included large providers, SDPs and consultants. I made a commitment to…[Read more]

Just to add: The APPETD CEO (Cynthia Reynders), and APPETD Board members – Dr Shirley Lloyd and Ms Samantha Naidoo will be joining me on Monday at a meeting with Higher Health to discuss higher education and further education in our sector. We are hoping that something positive comes from this and will keep you informed.

Hi Sylvia.

I understand that you have been in communication with the APPETD CEO through all this. I would however also like to state that APPETD does not only represent the “large private providers”. APPETD has many small providers who are gaining benefit from their membership – in particular over this time where we have managed to have their…[Read more]
Linda Ingram replied to the topic DHET Circular dated 24 May 2020 in the forum Concerned Providers Interest Group – QCTO/SAQA/SETA 2 years, 6 months ago

Hi Sylvia. I really appreciate you initiating the discussion around the Circular made available by DHET. Within a few hours of receiving this Circular, APPETD made it available to its members so I’m comfortable that we (APPETD) are keeping our members informed.

Behind the scenes, we have been engaging with various other stakeholders on behalf of…[Read more]
Linda Ingram replied to the topic Private learning providers: Perhaps this is what we should do in the forum Training Service Providers 7 years, 4 months ago

Hannes I’m concerned that each time I review a discussion that you post, the same issues are raised. Whilst reading the comments here it is clear that people are unaware of all the good work that APPETD has been doing for the private providers. As the new Chair of APPETD, I am committing to you all that during our next Board meeting we will…[Read more]
Linda Ingram replied to the topic Private learning providers: What are we going to do? in the forum Training Service Providers 7 years, 4 months ago

As the new Chairperson of APPETD, may I point out that over the last two years APPETD has worked tirelessly by taking the concerns of the private providers to government. I believe we have made great progress in this regard and are now represented (as private providers) in forums, committees and formal structures in government. I’d like to invite…[Read more]

What a pity private providers are not looking to APPETD for the unity that you seek.

Hi Sylvia
I’m working with the FP&M SETA and Services SETA and they both refer to the WSP and ATR.

To Colleen and others who are experiencing dreadful service from providers – please contact APPETD. We’d like to hear more about your experiences so that we can clean up this industry. One of the benefits of joining APPETD is that we can and do take action against service providers when required. The APPETD CEO will be in the office on Friday and…[Read more]

Hi Renee
Have you thought of publishing your “QMS Toolkit” if I may refer to it as that?
Linda Ingram replied to the topic What do Accredited Providers need? in the forum Concerned Providers Interest Group – QCTO/SAQA/SETA 7 years, 8 months ago

Hi Lynel.
Seems I’m following in your footsteps tonight…but hoping that I might be able to add some info addressing some of your concerns. Within the next couple of weeks APPETD will be launching a site that may very well address many of these issues you have raised. While I’d really like to go into detail now – I can’t as there will be suitable…[Read more]
Linda Ingram replied to the topic Charging a commitment fee for an MOU in the forum Discussions on Assessment & Moderation 7 years, 8 months ago

I see that there is some great comments and I agree with some. I want to share my experiences as a provider – an ethical one. When registering a qualification you need to provide a list of assessors and moderators that you will use when you role out the programme or qualification. So the provider starts looking for people that they will feel…[Read more]

There are 60 seats available so please book sooner rather than later and I will definitely see you there. As Vice-Chair at APPETD I’ve been trying to get more of these…[Read more]
