Workforce Essentials

Workforce Essentials (WFE) is compulsory and forms part of the graduating requirements for a learner who wishes to pursue a degree. The two objectives of the WFE are:

• Identify and address skills gaps in work and career; and
• Immerse in the work environment of the specific industry.

WFE comprises two competency units:

• Career Catalyst; and
• Relevant Industry Work Experience.

Learners can embark on WFE upon enrolling into the degree and have up to two trimesters and three attempts to demonstrate the competencies and pass a competency unit. Learners can apply for a Recognition of Prior Learning of either of the competency units of WFE if they satisfy the necessary criteria.
