Did you know you can achieve a registered qualification without a matric certificate? Our range of SAQA-registered occupational certificates enables you to build a strong foundation for your career by providing you with sought-after work-related skills. And the best part? Occupational Certificates are available at different NQF levels, making them accessible to students with various educational backgrounds. 

What are Occupational Certificates? 

They are registered qualifications designed to equip you with specific, work-related skills. Unlike traditional three-year degrees, these certificates focus on the practical side of the job, getting you ready for the workplace faster. They’re ideal if you want to enter the workforce quickly or if you want to advance within your current job. The focus is on industry-relevant skills rather than general knowledge, so you can get a head start on your career with a targeted qualification.

The Benefits of Occupational Certificates Over Degrees 

When you study for a degree, you typically spend three or more years covering a broad range of subjects, many of which might not directly apply to your future job. Occupational Certificates, on the other hand, get straight to the point. They’re shorter, more affordable, and allow you to specialise in a career-specific skill set. Additionally, these certificates are registered at various NQF levels, allowing you to choose one that suits your qualifications and experience -even without matric.
