Public Policy, Politics and Democratic Citizenship Training Courses — SAQA, SETA and QCTO Accredited and Aligned | Accredited Africa Training Institute for Capacity Development (AATICD)

QCTO Accreditation: Quality Assurance for Occupational Qualifications

At the Accredited Africa Training Institute for Capacity Development (AATICD), we are proud to offer courses that are SAQA, SETA and QCTO accredited and aligned. QCTO is the Quality Council for Trades and Occupations — the council that oversees occupational qualifications, trade tests and skills programmes, and recognises this course within the occupational qualifications framework. This triple accreditation ensures that your training meets the highest national standards and is recognised by employers and regulatory bodies across South Africa.

Why QCTO Accreditation Matters for Your Career

The QCTO is responsible for the Occupational Qualifications Sub-Framework (OQSF), which governs qualifications that are directly linked to specific occupations. When you choose a QCTO-accredited course, you are investing in a credential that is designed to equip you with the practical skills and theoretical knowledge required in the workplace. AATICD’s courses in human rights, democracy, conflict resolution, and electoral observation are all aligned with this framework, giving you a competitive edge in fields such as public policy, governance, and civil society.
