As of 1 September 2022, the Services SETA no longer accepts applications for Skills Development Providers (SDPs) accreditation against all previously registered qualifications, as these qualifications expire in June 2023. Accreditation applications received by August 31, 2022, on the other hand, will be processed. Accredited SDPs have until June 30, 2024, to enroll students in historical qualifications.
The focus is now firmly on occupational qualifications. SDPs are encouraged to apply for accreditation against registered occupational qualifications through the Quality Council for Trades and Occupations (QCTO). The Quality Council for Trades and Occupations (QCTO) is responsible for accrediting Skills Development Providers (SDPs) to offer programs and qualifications that fall under the Occupational Qualifications.
Exams from June 2024
Given the above, learners who register after June 2024 will write exams as part of their assessment.
