We are offering unique courses that are work-related preparing students to enter the job market immediately after obtaining their qualifications both in National Certificate Vocational (NC (V)) and Report 191 (Nated) Engineering and Business Studies. This means that when students enrol for TVET Courses, the training and course material they receive will prepare them for a specific career and it would help them to better their skills to flourish in that specific field. Our vision is to be a dynamic institution committed to growing skilled people for a better future and our mission is to strive to create an institution of excellence that provides high-quality, demand-led programmes to support skills development in South Africa.
