What is the National Certificate: Vocational (NCV)?

The National Certificate: Vocational (NCV) is a high-quality, government-backed qualification designed to propel your child into their chosen career field immediately after Grade 9. This innovative qualification replaces the traditional Grade 10, Grade 11, and Grade 12 trajectory with a focused, three-year programme:

• Instead of traditional Grades, students complete NCV Level 2, Level 3, and Level 4 in their chosen specialisation.
• Students gain an exceptional academic foundation meticulously tailored to their chosen career.
• They matriculate with a qualification that includes invaluable practical workplace experience.
• A national certificate is awarded at the end of each level, offering flexibility for students to enter the workplace after any level (though completing Level 4 is highly recommended for maximum benefit).

The NCV Advantage: Why Choose Early Specialisation?

By completing an NCV programme up to Level 4, your child gains a significant advantage over their Grade 12 counterparts:

• Relevant Curriculum: They shift directly to subjects that are highly relevant and directly applicable to their chosen career, bypassing elective subjects that may not align with their professional aspirations.
• Integrated Workplace Experience: Our programmes include built-in, hands-on time in an actual workplace. Students don't just observe; they actively assist in completing tasks, gaining real-world skills and insights.
• Career-Specific Qualification: Your child graduates with a career-specific national certificate and academic qualification, rather than only beginning their specialised studies after Grade 12.
• Market-Ready Skills: They matriculate with demonstrable workplace experience to proudly list on their CV, along with the practical skills required to actively excel in their chosen field.

Can NCV Graduates Apply to University?

Absolutely! NCV Level 4 graduates are well-positioned to apply to universities, provided their qualification aligns with a similar career field to the programme they chose. The university’s regular application process and requirements will still apply, ensuring a seamless transition for our ambitious students.
