Well done Lynel – keep up the good work

Thanks for this much-needed initiative, Lynel. The same problems are experienced by Private Higher Education Institutions that I assist with CHE accreditation. Even after the quite lengthy process of receiving CHE accreditation and SAQA registration of the qualification, we are still waiting for DHET registration – with no response after 2+ years.…[Read more]

Good afternoon all Accredited Training Providers (SDPs). We are busy drafting concerns to the DHET Minister, regarding the long process of applying for registration with the DHET, and need to get support from at least 500 Accredited Providers. Please help us reach the goal. The survey will take you 3 minutes. Let’s spread this, and get involved.…[Read more]

Hi Sylvia, you are most welcome. Although this is a negative report, there are professional bodies out there, that work hard and put their members first for sure!

Hi Albert, have you received your electronic acknowledgement of your application file received? I am not sure who you are dealing with, but perhaps speak to Trevor at QCTO and ask him what the delay is in your application.

My concern is in regards to QCTO turnaround time to issue accreditations to service providers,i have applied for mine in August last year and up to date still haven’t been given a date for evaluation.If i send them follow up emails i do not get response intime or nothing at all.My question is what is the delay in the process.

Lynel, thank you so much for posting this SAQA media release.
Although the media report contains a link that comes up to negative reports on the auditing profession, we have a number of professional bodies for the human resource management and training domains registered with SAQA – so this is equally relevant to our stakeholders.

Hey Calvin.
I know exactly what you mean. I operate in the rail space and the rail qualifications are not yet completed. That is why, even though some of them are already registered with the QCTO, we insist on being accredited with TETA. Without the assessments, being accredited is useless. It’s even worse if they don’t have any assessments,…[Read more]
