NQF level 5 accounting qualifications

Here is the comprehensive list of all the accounting qualifications that are officially recognised by the South African Qualifications Authority (ideally will create an internal SAQA explainer page that we can link to here rather than to their site.)

Still undecided whether to create subpages for each qualification and link them from here, or just keep them lumped together beneath the read more. (I have already created categories for each NQF level, but that might be unnecessary.)

  • Certificate: Accounting
  • Diploma in Public Sector Accounting
  • Higher Certificate in Accounting
  • Higher Certificate in Accounting Practice
  • Higher Certificate: Accounting
  • Higher Certificate: Commerce: Cost and Management Accounting
  • Higher Certificate: Commerce: Financial Accounting
  • National Diploma: Technical Financial Accounting
  • Occupational Certificate: Management Accounting Officer
  • Certificate: Bookkeeping and Accountancy (Level TBA: Pre-2009 was L4)

Content below is unformatted and copied from our Google doc research. Each link will be no-followed and goes to the specific qualification’s SAQA certificate rather than the actual institutions.
