Why SAQA Accreditation Matters for Your Procurement Training
When you invest in professional development, you need assurance that your qualification is recognised and valued. That is why every course offered by the Accredited Africa Training Institute for Capacity Development (AATICD) is SAQA, SETA and QCTO accredited and aligned. 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. This means your learning outcomes are measured against national benchmarks, giving you a credential that employers trust.
What Does SAQA Accreditation Mean for You?
SAQA oversees the NQF, which classifies qualifications by level and credit value. Each AATICD course is linked to specific unit standards registered with SAQA. For example, the Strategic Sourcing Execution course (unit standard 260137) carries 6 credits at NQF Level 6, while Sourcing Strategy Development for Procurement (260097) earns 8 credits at the same level. Even shorter programmes like Initial Assessment for Strategic Sourcing (260077) provide 4 credits at NQF Level 6. Upon completion, depending on the course taken you will receive an NQF-aligned Certificate of Competence that demonstrates your expertise.
