Accreditation and Registration

In South Africa, institutes providing education are required to obtain accreditation with one of the 33 Education & Training Quality Assurance bodies (ETQAs) which are in turn accredited by the South African Qualifications Authority (SAQA).

Damelin, and its various campuses hold provisional accreditation with Umalusi, the highest possible accreditation obtainable with that particular ETQA.

Damelin is also on the registers of private higher and further education & training providers at South Africa’s Department of Higher Education and Training for an extensive list of qualifications.

Further to the local accreditation, Damelin, through its international affiliation network, allows South African based learners a channel with which to obtain qualifications, licenses and certificates conferred by various international organisations.
