Before enrolling

  • Verify the qualification's current SAQA registration status directly before making an application, because the supplied record shows a registration-end snapshot of 30 June 2018 and its current status has not been verified.
  • Confirm that the institution or provider is authorised to offer the qualification and that the specific programme is available for new enrolment.
  • Check the provider's published admission requirements before applying.
  • Ask the provider about assessment arrangements and any practical, clinical or workplace-based requirements that may apply.
  • Confirm any separate professional registration or legal requirements relevant to practising in nursing before relying on the qualification for that purpose.
Data source: Qualification information is based on SAQA dataset records available to Edupstairs. Always confirm current registration, provider accreditation and admission requirements before enrolling.
