Hospitality, Tourism, Travel, Gaming and Leisure Training Courses — SAQA, SETA and QCTO Accredited and Aligned

Why SAQA Accreditation Matters for Your Career in Hospitality, Tourism, Travel, Gaming and Leisure

When you invest in professional development, you want a qualification that is recognised and respected. At AATICD (Accredited Africa Training Institute for Capacity Development), all our courses are SAQA, SETA and QCTO accredited and aligned. This triple accreditation means your learning meets the highest standards set by the South African Qualifications Authority (SAQA), the Sector Education and Training Authority (SETA), and the Quality Council for Trades and Occupations (QCTO). SAQA is the South African Qualifications Authority — the body that registers unit standards on the National Qualifications Framework (NQF) and recognises this course as a credit-bearing programme. Whether you are entering the gaming industry, advancing in hospitality, or managing tourism operations, SAQA accreditation ensures your skills are portable and valued across South Africa.

What Does SAQA Accreditation Mean for You?

SAQA oversees the NQF, which organises qualifications by level and credits. Each AATICD course is aligned to a specific NQF level and carries a set number of credits. For example, our American Roulette Dealing Techniques course is at NQF Level 3 with 16 credits, while Casino Compliance and Regulatory Standards is at NQF Level 3 with 3 credits. These credits contribute to a full qualification on the NQF, giving you a clear pathway to further learning and career progression. Upon completion, depending on the course taken you will receive an NQF-aligned Certificate of Competence that demonstrates your expertise. This certificate is a powerful tool for job applications, promotions, and professional credibility.
