For the May/June 2026 examinations, registration ran from 1 October 2025 to 6 February 2026.
What Sedibeng can offer instead
- NC(V) programmes from Grade 9, such as Electrical Infrastructure Construction or IT and Computer Science.
- Occupational certificates, such as Chef or Hairdresser.
- NATED programmes for matric holders, while phase-out intakes remain.
If your goal is university admission, rewriting matric subjects is usually the better route. If your goal is a trade or job-ready skill, a Sedibeng programme may suit you without upgrading.
Applications for Sedibeng’s 2027 NC(V) and occupational programmes opened on 1 September 2026. See Sedibeng campuses and application steps and why TVET colleges do not offer matric rewrites.
