4. Learning opportunities<br />
in the ETD sector<br />
4.1. What are the ETD Qualifications on the National Qualifications Framework?<br />
<strong>The</strong> learning opportunities for the ETD sector lie mainly in the HET sector, as shown<br />
in Table 4.1 below. Individuals who meet the requirements <strong>of</strong> the different providers<br />
may undertake one <strong>of</strong> the many qualifications available. However, the scarce skills<br />
detailed in section 5 are particularly recommended since there are more employment<br />
opportunities for such skills. (This does not mean that there are no employment<br />
opportunities for other skills, only that the greatest demand is for the scarce skills).<br />
Also, many providers <strong>of</strong>fer programs that address the critical skills, and it is particularly<br />
recommended to skills development facilitators that they include a focus on critical<br />
skills for existing employees.<br />
