LIST OF REALIGNED LEGACY QUALIFICATIONS
The landscape of skills development is changing from historically registered qualifications to occupationally directed qualifications.
For its part, the EWSETA is progressively realigning historically registered qualifications into occupational qualifications. The list will be updated as new occupational qualifications are registered.
Below here is the list of aligned and SAQA registered occupational qualifications
