It can be said without any doubt that education is the ultimate key to one’s success. This statement not only rings true in an individual’s personal capacity, but also that of a nation.
As we take the journey along the South African history, we notice that many South Africans as well as people from the African continent have taken on the challenge of making education, training, and development a priority as they move forward in advancing their careers. This is an excellent approach by any individual who takes on the challenge of educating themselves with the intention of succeeding in life and at the same time adding value to the development of their respective country. The questions that are however asked are:
- Are the higher educational institutions really delivering value for money?
- Are all educational institutions such as lecture based colleges/technikons and universities, as well as correspondence study institutions accredited as per government requirements?
- Are the courses being offered accredited, where required to be?
Whilst the above questions can lead to lengthy debates, it poses a difficult task for individuals and industry in choosing an institution that is accredited and offers courses that are tailored to have a positive impact on the learner as well as the workplace.
