GRADE 9 LIFE ORIENTATION Good day learners and parents/guardians/caregivers RE: WORK FOR DURATION OF LOCKDOWN (20 30 APRIL) Please view the attached documents below. These are notes that learners must write into their workbooks or they can Print and Paste it into their books. This is of utmost importance as learners will be assessed on this content. I would suggest that the learner spends a maximum of 2 hours per week on the subject which would sufficiently cover the class time that is being lost. For example, Tuesday and Thursday, one hour each day. After completing these notes and reading the required content in the textbook (Pages 89 99), please complete the following task. Activity 1.1 (page 93) Questions 1, 2, 3b, 3c, 4

NCV continued Accredited: officially recognised and certified Pay attention to the minimum requirements for the courses, for e.g. Grade 9 certificate, age, some require a NQF level 2 (Grade 10), RPL (Recognition of Prior Learning) certain courses might require this The duration of the course It is a form of specialised training See how many TVET colleges you can identify in the Western Cape.
Implications (consequences) of choices between NSC and NCV NCV - National Certificate Vocational Find out which TVET colleges are in your area & what courses are offered at the different campuses. Consider your personality, interests, skills and values. Choose ONE of the programmes offered. Consider the fundamental and vocational components to make up your 7 subjects.
Once you have completed NQF levels 2, 3 & 4, you will obtain a NCV qualification, and able to start your career immediately. Your course is subsidised (money has been paid towards your studies by the Government), so you will have to pay the remaining difference. Consider additional costs such as transport, textbooks, accommodation. Apply for a financial aid if necessary. If you are interested in studying further at a HET institution, it will depend on the quality of your results and the chosen course. Enquire at the HET institutions you considering to study further at to determine if studying at a TVET college is recommended or necessary.
