Management’s Preface
Student Support Services
S
ekhukhune FET College is a product of a merger of two colleges with very distinct diverse backgrounds, namely: CS Barlow College and Dr CN Phatudi College of Education.
The College has become the first choice institution for further education and training for many young people and the programmes offered directly respond to the priority skills demand of the South African economy available in theory and practical learning. The college constituted the unit called student Support which strives to embody the vision and mission of the College by providing expert and exceptional service to students - with the end product being a happy, motivated and balanced individual who has reached his/her full potential. In order to achieve these ideals different service areas are managed by the Student Supporters at CS Barlow and CN Phatudi campus: Financial Support: The Student Support on the respective campuses in collaboration with the College Finance Department are responsible for notifying students about bursaries. We also have the DHET FET Colleges Bursary Scheme. Wealth & wellness / orientation: The Sport and Culture Co-ordinator and the SRC organise informal activities during orientation. The Miss Barlow and Miss CN Phatudi beauty contest, HIV/AIDS awareness day, Drugs and Alcohol Abuse day are held to preach healthy lifestyle. Leadership Development: The Student Support help to facilitate the SRC elections annually and once the students democratically elected their leadership, we organise the three-day leadership training camp. Career development: The Placement Test is available on every campus. Students complete the questionnaire and the Student Support discuss possible careers with the students concerned. Students are also given assignments to do research on the internet about careers and assisted with Cvs compilations and job hunting skills. Social development: A number of social occasions are organized by the SRC on different campuses, e.g. Miss Valentines Day, Miss Sekfetcol, the end of year function, etc. Students enjoy attending these occasions. Sport: The students are encouraged to participate in the various sporting codes available at the college, that include soccer, netball, softball, chess, etc and the college take part in the Sport tournament organised by the LIFETSCA and the Arts and cultural activities. Academic Support: Tutors are available and different programs, eg: study methods, peer counseling and PLATO, to assist students academically.

FET Colleges Bursary
ICDL Studies
DHET FET Colleges Bursary Scheme
The International Computer Drivers License (ICDL) is an internationally accepted qualification. It certifies that the holder has knowledge of the basic concepts of IT and is able to use a personal computer and common computer applications at a basic level of competence. Universities give exemption to a computer course for first year students if they have passed all seven modules. The ICDL is a test of practical skills and it measures the success of the training and proves you are competent to use the Computer.
Through the FET Colleges Bursary Scheme, the DHET aims to provide access to eligible students for vocational education and training at Public FET colleges WHAT IS THE DHET FET COLLEGE BURSARY SCHEME
The ICDL is based on seven modules:
The Department of Higher Education and Training FET College Bursary Scheme are funds made available by Government to assist student enrolled, or intending to enrol, at FET Colleges but are unable to fund their studies. This is not a loan!
1. Basic concepts of IT 2. Using the computer and managing files 3. Word processing (MS Word) 4. Spreadsheet (MS Excel) 5. Database (MS Access) 6. Presentations (PowerPoint) 7. Information and Communication (Internet)
WHO MAY APPLY? You are eligible to apply for a bursary if you are:
All but the first module, test practical skills rather than theory. Tests consist of tasks chosen at random of typical day-to-day computer applications. The ICDL is a qualification indicating what you can actually do, rather than a theoretical approach. As such, it is approved and supported by the NQF and South African Qualifications Authority (SAQA) When a student completed three modules they can apply for a STARTER Cetificate. Each student receives a Log Book with registration wherein his/her successes are noted. On completion of Module 7 the ICDL Foundation of SA issues an ICDL certificate. Entry Requirements: A prospective learner should have at least a year end report for Grade 11 or Higher, or an NQF Level 2 Qualification, or an approved bridging programme designed for the specific purpose to access this skills programme.

In order to facilitate access to the National Certificate (Vocational) and NATED qualification, the Department of Higher Education and Training has made bursaries available. The National Student Financial Aid Scheme administers the bursaries on behalf of the Department of Higher Education and Training.
