Understanding the Transition from SETA to QCTO Qualifications

In our previous newsletter, we alluded to the significant shift from Sector Education and Training Authorities (SETAs) to the Quality Council for Trades and Occupations (QCTO). Established in 2010, the QCTO represents a pivotal change in South Africa’s education landscape, focusing on standardized qualifications across all sectors through the Occupational Qualifications Framework (OQF).

Unlike SETAs, which were sector-specific, the QCTO’s approach ensures mobility and recognition in the job market. Learnerships under the QCTO emphasize a structured approach, including knowledge components, practical training, and external assessments. With the transition already underway, learners have until June 30, 2027, to complete their existing programs.

Are you unsure of what this transition will mean for your business or existing learnerships? Give us a call!
