About The National Qualifications Framework

The NQF is an integrated system governed by a set of principles and guidelines which records a learner's achievement. This system enables national recognition of acquired skills and knowledge through training programmes and encourages life-long learning. It is advisable to check the NQF level and the associated credit values assigned to a training programme before you enrol for any training programmes registered against the NQF.

Our training is recognised by Sector Education & Skills Training Authorities (SETAs) and industry regulators to ensure consistent quality output.
