What is an FET College?
Public Further Education and Training (FET)
colleges strive to provide high-quality education
and training to help you equip yourself with the
qualifications and skills you need to start out on
a chosen career path. You will gain invaluable
life skills to meet the many challenges of the
working world with more than just a
qualification on paper.
Public FET Colleges also work closely with
players and stakeholders from various
industries to help fulfill the great need that
exists for trained, skilled and qualified
employees through customized education and
training programmes.
Why go to an FET College?
The education and training offered at a public
FET College is customised and responsive to the
needs of learners and industry and the careers
they encourage are essential for the economic
upliftment of the South African economy.
An FET vocational programme will equip you

skills, experience and knowledge and it will also
provide you with access to higher education and
lifelong learning. This means your earning
potential can be unlimited.

Vocational alternative to an academic Grade 10 – 12 by

theory and practice. The practical component of study
may be offered in a real workplace environment or in a

education studies subject to appropriate subject
combinations.
