Typical eligibility and entry requirements
NQF level alone does not determine eligibility. Each programme or qualification has its own entry requirements and selection criteria.
Duration differs by programme, credit volume, delivery model and workplace requirements.
A catalogue record at this NQF level is not proof that funding is currently open. Funding depends on active MERSETA projects, grants, bursaries or employers.
Some programmes require workplace learning while others do not. Check the individual programme structure.
