TVET Colleges offer a wide variety of courses, ranging from engineering and technology to business studies, hospitality, agriculture, and more. The courses are typically aligned with the needs of the local and national industries. These courses can lead to National Certificates (Vocational) and diplomas.
TVET college entry requirements
For NC(V) courses, a Grade 9 certificate or equivalent might suffice, while NATED Report 191 programmes require a Grade 12 certificate or its equivalent.
It's essential to carefully review the academic prerequisites for your chosen course to ensure eligibility.
