QCTO-Accredited Theology & Biblical Studies Training at AATICD

At the Accredited Africa Training Institute for Capacity Development (AATICD), we are proud to offer a range of theology and biblical studies 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 means your learning is not only spiritually enriching but also formally recognised within South Africa's national qualifications system.

Why QCTO Accreditation Matters

The Quality Council for Trades and Occupations (QCTO) ensures that occupational qualifications meet rigorous standards. By choosing a QCTO-accredited programme, you gain confidence that your training is relevant, practical, and aligned with industry needs. AATICD's courses carry the full triple accreditation of SAQA, SETA and QCTO, giving you a credential that is respected by employers and further education institutions alike.
