Construction Education and Training Authority (CETA)

About

The mission of the Construction Education and Training Authority (CETA) is to create a solid skills base as a foundation for infrastructural development and economic empowerment. The CETA initiates skills projects and learnerships aimed at improving and developing South Africa's human resources, including a construction workforce whose skills are recognised and valued in terms of the National Qualifications Frameworks (NQF). The CETA is accredited as an Education and Training Quality Assurance (ETQA) body by the South African Qualification Authority (SAQA) on behalf of the Quality Council for Trades and Occupations (QCTO). The ETQA status authorises the CETA to accredit and monitor both training and training providers. To facilitate the provision of training, the CETA uses discretionary money at its disposal to fund projects that aim to achieve its qualitative and quantitative obligations in terms of the National Skills Development Strategy (NSDS).
