HOW TO USE THE EXPLORER

Understand the evidence before acting

Occupation ≠ opportunity

An OFO-listed occupation is not a current vacancy or recruitment announcement.

Dates matter

Historical, draft and unconfirmed research is labelled. Different years must not be combined into one demand estimate.

Providers ≠ seats

QCTO-imported provider records do not establish course availability, campus delivery or enrolment capacity.

Research disclaimer: Edupstairs is an independent educational information service. The explorer combines DHET OFO 2021 classifications with SETA source reports and reviewed Edupstairs links. Not all records are independently source-verified. No job, funding, placement or admission is guaranteed. Always confirm details with the relevant SETA, qualifications authority or training provider.
