Level descriptors roadshows for the SA NQF
Eight roadshows will be held over February and March to explain to the public, and stakeholders in education and training how the level descriptors will be applied. A level descriptor is a statement of learning achievement. Level descriptors provide a description of each of the levels on the National Qualifications Framework (NQF). The NQF Act No 67 of 2008 made provision for a 10-level framework, whereas the South African NQF previously had 8-NQF levels. Click here for more information on the roadshows. The Level Descriptors document is available here
