Introduction In the world of SETA and QCTO training, compliance is non-negotiable—but how you manage it can make or break your programme. If you’re still relying on paper-based Portfolios of Evidence (PoEs), you might be losing more than just time. From lost documents to delayed reporting, manual systems are holding your programme back. Here’s why…
With over 500,000 learners entering South Africa’s skills development pipeline each year, training providers face growing pressure to scale their operations — without sacrificing quality, compliance, or sanity.

These frameworks carry distinct processes, responsibilities, and documentation standards — and failing to comply can lead to delays in certification, audit failures, or even…
The transition from SAQA to QCTO qualifications is well underway, and for merSETA-funded training providers, now is the time to prepare, adapt, and lead. As South Africa moves toward a streamlined occupational qualifications framework, training institutions must understand how to upgrade their current SAQA qualifications and align with the Quality Council for Trades and Occupations…

As South Africa’s training and development landscape transitions fully from SAQA to QCTO qualifications, compliance expectations are evolving — especially when it comes to the Portfolio of Evidence (PoE). For training providers, facilitators, and assessors, understanding QCTO’s PoE requirements is crucial for continued accreditation and learner success. What Is a Portfolio of Evidence? A Portfolio…
