What is the SCCP programme about?

The Secondary Competency Certificate Programme (SCCP) seeks to improve students' attendance, reduce school dropouts, shore-up equity and enhance quality and relevance in the area of technical and vocational education at the Grade 9 and Grade 10 levels.

The competency-based modularized programme is designed with strong emphasis being placed on what students can do in the workplace after completion of training.

The SCCP also serves as an alternative pathway for the acquisition of knowledge, skills and desirable attitudes that will prepare students for further training and/or the world of work.
