Career prospects

The qualification is aimed at practitioners who want or already hold leadership roles in education: principals, deputy principals, heads of department, district officials and experienced teachers.

The page provides a fees breakdown (120 credits; fees per programme credit ± R332; total tuition fees R39,940*) and indicates payment is handled through the online student portal.
