Vega opens doors to opportunities

Many of last year’s matriculants find themselves in a situation where their plans to study towards a degree this year have been thwarted by their marks.

Many matriculants fail to realise that they are able to pursue post-Matric study, even if they did not achieve a university pass.

Those who did not apply timeously for university space may also think they have to forfeit a year.

But that certainly is not the case, because there is an another option – completing a 1-year higher certificate at Vega, a brand of The Independent Institute of Education, SA’s largest and most accredited private higher education provider.

IIE higher certificates provide a solid foundation for future degree study, while also allowing successful candidates to enter the career of their choice after completion.

“Many of last year’s matriculants find themselves in a situation where their plans to study towards a degree this year have been thwarted by their marks. But for those who remain determined to study towards a bachelor’s degree, pursuing a higher certificate will allow them to take the next step without having to repeat matric,” says managing director of IIE Vega, Shevon Lurie.

She says higher certificates have replaced many foundation programmes, as they provide students with an opportunity to gain a full qualification, while at the same time mastering those essential skills needed for higher education success.

“There is still time for prospective students to register for an IIE higher certificate if they move swiftly.”

Lurie says IIE higher certificates at Vega are springboards to success, as they are “laser-focused” on equipping students with real-life, future-focused skills for which the demand continues to grow in rapidly evolving workplaces across the globe.

“All of our higher certificates empower students with the skills they need for very specific roles and all of them are linked to a range of career opportunities.”
