Its responsibilities include the design and maintenance of occupational qualifications, accreditation of Skills Development Providers, assessment oversight and certification.
Skills Development Providers that offer qualifications and programmes falling under the QCTO's occupational framework must obtain the applicable QCTO accreditation. Accreditation is therefore linked to a defined provider and an approved scope — not simply to a training company's name.
QCTO occupational learning is designed around the knowledge, practical skills and workplace experience required for an occupation. This connects formal learning more directly with real workplace competence and South Africa's skills needs.
The QCTO oversees the occupational qualification system from accreditation and implementation through assessment and certification. This provides a national quality-assurance framework for occupational learning and the certificates issued within that framework.
Employers and learners should confirm two things before booking accredited occupational training: that the provider is accredited, and that the specific qualification or skills programme being booked falls within that provider's current approved scope.
Starcrow 36 publishes its current QCTO programmes and accreditation references on this website so that clients can see the scope relevant to their training requirement instead of relying only on a downloadable accreditation document.
Accredited provider does not mean every course offered by that provider is automatically QCTO accredited. Starcrow 36 also offers other accredited programmes and non-accredited in-house or e-learning programmes. We identify these separately and can confirm the applicable accreditation status before enrolment.
