HIGHER EDUCATION AND TRAINING CERTIFICATE:
DEVELOPMENT PRACTICE
SAQA ID: 23095
INTRODUCTION:
The HETC: Development Practice is a fully
accredited NQF Level 5 qualification consisting of
various Unit Standards. Learners who successfully
complete the course are awarded with a
Certificate of Competence endorsed by the
ETDP-SETA.
This qualification aims to capacitate and support
individuals and communities in achieving their de-
velopment objectives. Many Development Practitioners, including volunteers, are al-
ready in possession of the skills and experience in community mobilisation but they
lack the credentials. This course is an accessible way for existing or aspirant develop-
ment practitioners to obtain a basic qualification in the field.
FTC adopts an integrated approach to the delivery of its courses. The courses, while
based on the required Unit Standards, are inextricably linked and ‘converge in a fo-
cused, needs-driven programme aimed at producing well-rounded and effective
Community Development Practitioners.

ADMISSION TO THE COURSE:
Practitioners wishing to pursue this qualification are assumed to have at least an NQF
Level 4 qualification in Development Practices or any other recognised education
qualification at NQF Level 4. We recognise that many practitioners have been in-
volved in community development without necessarily having had a formal qualifica-
tion. Practitioners who do not have the necessary entry qualification may be admitted
through an RPL process based on their experience in the field.
IMPLEMENTATION PLAN:
Our training includes block training sessions where after the learners spend time in the
field where learners are engaged in practical community development learning activ-
ities. This allows learners to complete the programme in 12 cycles. Each cycle involves
class time and time in the field. The fieldwork pro-
vides the opportunity for learners to apply their
learning, receive on-site support and to be as-
sessed.
