  Damelin Correspondence College’s learning opportunities
 

Damelin Correspondence College offers our learners three types of learning opportunities:

National qualifications
National qualifications are formal qualifications that are registered on the National Qualifi cations Framework (NQF), and that are accredited by a relevant quality assurance body, such as a SETA (for unit standard-based qualifications), Umalusi (for General and Further Education qualifications), or the Higher Education Quality Council (HEQC) (for Higher Education qualifications). National qualifications are credit-bearing and enable articulation on the NQF.
Example
National Certificate in Small Business Financial Management, NQF Level 4, SAQA ID 48736, 120 credits (accredited by FASSET)

Provider programmes
Education providers like Damelin Correspondence College can offer their own, unique programmes that are not registered on the NQF. These are called provider programmes. Provider programmes are dynamic and market-driven, and focus on teaching specific skills. Provider programmes do not carry NQF credits and do not lead to national qualifications.
Example
Damelin Correspondence College Diploma in Interior Decorating

Agent programmes
Whenever Damelin Correspondence College offers training towards a programme or qualification that will be awarded by another provider or institute, it is called an agent programme. Damelin Correspondence College registers the learners, provides tuition and conducts formative assessment. The agent body usually sets and/or verifies the final examinations, and certifies the learner. Agent programmes provide local and/or international mobility to students.
Example
Microsoft Office User Specialist (MOUS)

Before you enrol on a Damelin Correspondence College programme, please keep in mind the type of learning opportunity that it provides.
