1. WHAT IS AN ARTISAN?
It is a person who has been certified as competent to perform a listed trade in accordance with the Skills Development Act 1998 (Act No. 97 of 1998). These trades include Boilermaker, Carpenter, Chef, Diesel Mechanic , Electrician, Hairdresser etc. For a list of all the artisan trades please refer to page 6 (ARTISAN TRADES).
2. HOW TO BECOME AND ARTISAN
The Department of Higher Education and Training through the National Artisan Moderation Body has come up with seven simple and practical steps to becoming a fully qualified artisan.
The 7-steps are: Step 1: Career Management Step 2: Fundamental and Vocational Theory Step 3: Learner Programme Registration and Funding Step 4: Occupational Knowledge and Practical Training Step 5: Workplace Training Step 6: Trade Testing Step 7: Trade Quality Assurance and Certification READ MORE……………. Step 1: Career Management Grade 9 is a pivotal grade determining your career as this is the time you make subject choices. In order to make a good subject choice you must know what career path you want to follow. Before thinking about how you are going to be an artisan, the first and foremost thing is know what you want to do based on your abilities, interests or community needs Whatever the reason is for you to want to pursue artisanship, the most important thing to know is what you want to do. (Know everything about your intended career).

Step 2 - Fundamental and Vocational Theory Vocational education is a very important part of artisan qualification. This is an education that prepares people for a specific trade, craft and careers at various levels from trade, craft, technician or a professional position. This is the preparatory theoretical knowledge of a trade that serves as the building block of your chosen artisanal study field. As an example, you have to know the K-53 road rules and pass your learner’s licence before going for a road test which in this case is the practical trade test. Step 3 - Learner Programme Registration and Funding The next step to becoming a qualified artisan is to find a workplace, training college or approved employer that will enter into a learning programme agreement and contract with you. In the last section of the booklet you can find a list of all the TVET Colleges for reference. The learning programme agreement and contract will be an agreement among the employer, the learner and an accredited training provider. A relevant SETA facilitates and registers the agreement and contract for the duration of the artisan learning programme. As discussed in the Career Management section earlier, the funding will be dependent on the contract offered. It is your duty to ensure that you get the best deal that will not have negative effects on your current and future financial wellness. Step 4 - Occupational Knowledge and Practical Training Occupational knowledge and practical learning should be specific to the chosen artisan trade and may be offered by various training providers. The availability of the specific training depends on what the provider is accredited for. The training offered is very specific to the chosen trade and may include things like fault finding, manufacturing, repair, servicing, mathematics, sciences and drawing where needed. Combining occupational knowledge and practical training means that you will get real-work experience whilst learning. That is one of the many advantages of artisanship. By the time you graduate, you are already experienced unlike someone coming from a university.

Step 5 - Workplace Training For workplace learning, you will need a mentor, workplace, work site and a subject matter expert. Mentor: is a person who is qualified in your trade, who will work with you to assist and guide you to successfully complete the structured work experience component. Work place: is a fixed location where you apply both skills and knowledge in an integrated manner to produce, maintain or deliver a service or product for an organisation. Work site: Is a movable or temporary location where you apply both skills and knowledge to produce maintain or deliver service or product. Subject Matter Expert: is someone who has successfully passed a trade test in the Specific trade/ or has completed his or her apprenticeship. The workplace learning process is known as the "on the job" learning process that allows you to gradually re-learn what you learnt in the practical learning process but applied in a real workplace. Step 6 - Trade Testing and Recognition of Prior Learning Once you have successfully completed the occupational knowledge, practical and workplace learning, the Skills Development Act requires you to take an external Trade Test before you can be certified as a qualified artisan, irrespective of the route or pathway of learning you used. Step 7 – Quality Assurance and Certification Through all the steps quality is checked and is an on-going process. It is therefore not an isolated activity focusing on the final external summative assessments or trade testing only, but is implemented right from the qualification development, learner selection, accreditation and delivery processes.

APPRENTICE ROUTE
A learning programme in respect of an officially listed trade, which includes a trade-test in
respect of that trade. During this process an Apprentice would work under the guidance and
supervision of a qualified artisan.
The candidate needs to have a minimum qualification of Grade 9 or N2 Certificate in the specific Trade they want to pursue a career in. Their training will include a combination of theory and on the job training. The duration of an Apprenticeship varies from 18 to 36 months. Once a candidate has gathered enough on the job training combined with theoretical knowledge, they then gain access to do a Trade Test.
ARPL
What is Recognition of Prior Learning? Recognition of Prior Learning” is a process whereby people’s prior learning can be formally recognized in terms of registered qualifications and unit standards, regardless of where and how the learning was attained. RPL acknowledges that people never stop learning, whether it takes place formally at an educational institution, or whether it happens informally. The minimum requirements needed are one to become an Artisan through the ARPL process are as follows:
· The minimum age that one should be is 19 years or older, · You also need to have work in the specific trade for a minimum of 36 months · There are no specific educational requirements needed, but candidates who
have any form of educational background should produce such.
