NATED (National Qualification Courses or Report 1919 NATED courses): These are post-school courses designed to provide specialised education in specific fields.
- To enroll in NATED N4-N6 courses, you typically need to have already obtained a Matric certificate.
- These qualifications extend up to NQF Level 6, encompassing practical and theoretical teaching methods.
-
NC(V) (National Certificate Vocational): NC(V) courses are tailored for students who want to acquire practical skills outside the traditional school environment.
- They are especially suitable for those who have decided on a career path and do not require a traditional high school experience.
