What Is A NATED Course?

NATED stands for National Accredited Technical Education Diploma. These courses are designed by the Department of Higher Education and Training (DHET) to equip you with the skills necessary to begin working as soon as possible.

NATED courses are accredited by QCTO (the Quality Council for Trades and Occupations) as well as SAQA (the South African Qualifications Authority). This means that they are recognised by employers as formal qualifications.

About Each NATED Course

Each NATED course has three theory course levels followed by 18 months of work experience for the practical side of the course. You will be placed at a job relevant to your course through iWIL, a free placement service that works in partnership with DHET.

Can I Study A NATED Course Without Matric?

No, you cannot study any NATED courses without Matric. In the past, you could apply to some NATED courses with a Matric equivalent qualification. However, this is no longer the case. You must have Matric to study any NATED course.

There are other options to further your studies, such as studying ICB courses. ICB courses are also fully accredited and internationally recognised.

ICB Courses Offered At Bellview Institute Of Distance Learning

Without a Matric, you can study:

Business Management requires only Grade 11 to apply. It begins at an NQF level 4, which is a Matric equivalent level. There are three NQF course levels going up to the Diploma level.

Financial Accounting requires only Grade 10 to apply. This course begins at an NQF level 3, which is equivalent to Grade 11. There are four NQF course levels going up to the Diploma level.

Bellview Institute of Distance Learning also offers the ICB courses in Office Administration. However, this requires Matric to apply.

You can also study these courses through distance learning at other reputable colleges, such as:

Can I Get My Matric If I Want To Study NATED Courses?

Yes, if you want to study a NATED course but do not have your Matric, you have options to get your Matric, which are:

Matric Rewrite
Matric Upgrade
Adult Matric

Matric Rewrite

This option is available to those under the age of 21 who would like to improve their Matric marks. You may rewrite a maximum of two subjects. These must be subjects you wrote for your Matric final exams, you cannot change subjects for the rewrite.

Note that if you failed Matric, you will only be allowed to rewrite Matric if the improvement of the marks in two subjects will improve your overall result from a fail to a pass. If your overall result will still be a fail, you will not be allowed to rewrite.

To apply for a Matric Rewrite, you will need:

A copy of your Statement of Results
A certified copy of your ID

Matric Upgrade

This option is available to those over the age of 21 who would like to improve their Matric results. You may upgrade as many subjects as you like. You may choose to change any or all of your elective subjects.

You may apply for a Matric Upgrade as early as 19. However, to write the exams you must be over the age of 21 because you will write the Adult Matric exams.

To apply for a Matric Upgrade, you will need:

A copy of your Statement of Results
A certified copy of your ID

Adult Matric

This option is available to those over the age of 21 who did not get to complete their high school education. Once you have successfully completed your Adult Matric, you will receive your Senior Certificate, which works exactly the same way as a National Senior Certificate/Matric Certificate.

What Have We Learned?

Bellview Institute of Distance Learning offers a wide range of NATED courses. There are many career options available with each year of study. You must have Matric to study a NATED course. There are alternative study options if you do not have your Matric. You can still get your Matric if you want to study a NATED course.
