Hi Sylvia,
I totally agree with the number of months taking into consideration the festive season.
Here is my understanding:
Most Legacy Qualification’s registration end date was extended to 30 June 2023. We note that some have expired and will not be re-registered again. Even before the Occupational Sub-Framework came in, the rule of thumb…[Read more] -

Thank you Sylvia,
I picked out two sentences which was important to me:
1. The number of SMMEs and the variety of businesses must be expanded.
2. Reindustrialise the economy focusing on growing small businesses.Once again, everything is about the higher education institutions and the TVET colleges – nothing about the Skills Development…[Read more]

Hi Tasmin,
Please be careful when contracting with Assessors/Moderators when dealing with Occupational Qualifications – especially Trades. I have seen that some Assessors/Moderators have been registered against the trades, whereby they don’t have proof of qualifying in the trade. Your SME must have the Trade as well as the stipulated years…[Read more]-

NQF Qualifications Sub-frameworks-for comment 10 months, 2 weeks agoHi Sylvia,
I am not sure how the data is audited. I know the AG audits each SETA – been there when that happened (many years ago) – very stressful, where you drop everything you do, and give the auditors what they want, without delay. It would be interesting to see if the data that is uploaded to SAQA is audited – so what goes in, is in fact…[Read more]

It is a very important post! My understanding, is that the SETAs had to obtain information from all stakeholders regarding legacy qualifications that had an end date of 30 June 2021. A list of Legacy Qualifications which have not been re-aligned to Occupational Qualifications as yet, that have learners enrolled – needed to be…[Read more]
