Continuing Education and Training Act, 2006 (Act No. 16 of 2006)NoticesNational Norms and Standards for Funding Technical and Vocational Education and Training CollegesH. The Annual Joint DHET-College Planning Process104 - 106 Enrolment Planning |
| 104. | An enrolment plan for TVET colleges needs to be developed and linked to available funding provided in the Medium Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF). Enrolment should be based on a three-year rolling plan and should include the projected growth in the number of graduates. |
| 105. | SETAs must develop a three year plan of programmes that they want the colleges to offer and this should inform the enrolment planning process of the colleges. This needs to form the basis of guaranteed funding from the SETAs to the colleges. The DHET should also develop a long term plan for a college (for instance 3-5 years) to ensure the financial sustainability of colleges informed by agreed-upon enrolment plans. |
| 106. | Enrolments at colleges for those programmes that require workplace learning should be premised on the colleges having access to workplaces for the learners based on the consolidated information provided by the SETAs for that area. The SETA offices in colleges should therefore be primarily centres of data management derived from data consolidated centrally. |
