NQF Level

The NQF level is a measure of the difficulty of the course. Generally, the higher the NQF level, the more educated the student needs to be in order to understand the course.

The NQF level we indicate here is an approximation of the minimum education level you need. This is often a guideline where the course is not actually aligned with the NQF. The level does not indicate that the course will be irrelevant to you if you have a higher education than the minimum!

The following table shows a breakdown of the approximate levels as stipulated by the South African Qualifications Authority. For more information visit www.saqa.org.za.
