    Hi Lynel. Thank you for responding. Whilst I fully understand procedurally – I think the manner that it is done is very disrespectful to the private provider industry. We are getting into February and this matter is not adequately addressed in most seta’s hence my posting. This impacts on all our businesses, and if you belong to a few seta’s then…[Read more]

    • Hi Tholsia, I agree with you. You are more than welcome to post a discussion on this. I am currently busy with the January DHET Annual Survey deadline, which follows by the IEB Annual Registration. I receive a number of calls, messages and emails on a daily basis regarding this subject. Go ahead and post a discussion, to get more providers on board.

    Hi Sorry – sometimes the fingers go faster than the brain.
    I did however want to raise a concern and perhaps get feedback on how providers are responding to the accreditation end dates of all Seta accreditation as 30 March 2020 (which was the seta end date – which is now extended). Whilst this extension is long in place now many providers have…[Read more]

    • Hi Tholsia, there has been a lot of discussions regarding the re-accreditation status of providers for March 2020. Some Setas will issue new letters from next month. You can imagine the flood of emails to the SETAs. The providers need to keep in close contact with their SETA, follow up via email (keep it in writing), and should they not receive…[Read more]

    Hi Roland. I am not an SDF but a training provider. Happy to offer support if it’s what you looking for? I think I have some knowledge (wink)

  • Hi Marie
    It is problems like this that seriously questions the lack of knowledge on the part of our regulators (Seta). QCTO has assured me just one week ago (as I had the exact problem) that providers should not submit their IP. My recommendation is that you get this in writing, then forward it to the QCTO for feedback.

  • Hi Sylvia
    If a need for the learnership is identified. the process is as follows:
    Step One: Establish if the qualification exists.
    (1) there needs to be qualification that has been registered on the OQF.
    (2) Or there needs to be an existing qualification on SAQA.
    (3) If no qualification currently exists, then it needs to be developed. New…[Read more]

  • Dear Hannes
    It was indeed good to meet you at the FET conference last week. Your comments are spot on, private providers play an incredible role in South Africa but this is often not seen or known. I am aware of some really good work APPETD has done and continues to do to add value in education and training for South Africans.
    If we can serve…[Read more]
