Introduction<br />

There is always an enormous demand <strong>for</strong> education and training in various aspects of In<strong>for</strong>mation Technology.<br />

There are several reasons <strong>for</strong> this. In a country where there is serious unemployment even amongst matriculants<br />

and people with tertiary qualifications, people are realising more and more that it is essential to have marketable<br />

skills. One sector of the job market where it is possible to get employment is in software development. Even<br />

when a person is <strong>for</strong>tunate enough to have a job, promotion opportunities may depend on the In<strong>for</strong>mation<br />

Technology related skills and the qualifications that he or she has. On the other hand, not everyone can af<strong>for</strong>d to<br />

study full time and most students would like to get at least some qualification quite quickly so that their careers<br />

can benefit as soon as possible. Furthermore, many employees find themselves in the computer industry without<br />

<strong>for</strong>mal qualifications. They typically received in-service training in the “technology of the day”, which becomes<br />

obsolete within a short period of time. Enterprises are aware of this, and prefer that employees are educated in the<br />

fundamentals of the discipline.<br />

It is also very important that the qualifications are recognised as having been awarded by a reputable institution<br />

that is well-known throughout South Africa and beyond our borders. The short courses offered by the <strong>Centre</strong> <strong>for</strong><br />

<strong>Software</strong> <strong>Engineering</strong> (CENSE) at the University of South Africa cater <strong>for</strong> these. These courses are all prepared<br />

by and presented by well qualified, experienced UNISA lecturers. All of these short courses include practical work<br />

requiring the students to work on a computer. In addition students are required to take examinations.<br />

A variety of short learning programmes (SLPs), using various modes of study, are presented. The first mode of<br />

study uses the traditional <strong>for</strong>m of distance education that UNISA has so much experience in presenting. It is largely<br />

paper-based so that students in remote areas can participate easily. Study material is posted to the students and<br />

they send their completed assignments back to UNISA where the lecturers mark them, giving as much guidance<br />

in the <strong>for</strong>m of comments as is possible. Additional lecturer support is via e-mail or telephone. Students using this<br />

study mode need to make their own arrangements to have access to suitable computers and software in order to<br />

complete the practical work.<br />

The second mode of study makes use of the Internet <strong>for</strong> all aspects of the course. This is known as Web-based<br />

study. Once again the student has the convenience of not having to leave home <strong>for</strong> classes but all the study material<br />

is delivered via the Internet, assignments are submitted via the Internet and less <strong>for</strong>mal communication between<br />

lecturer and student or between groups of students is done using e-mail. This mode of study is ideal <strong>for</strong> students<br />

who have access to the Internet and want the benefits of fast communication which allows <strong>for</strong> a feeling of being<br />

more in touch with the lecturer and class mates.<br />

The short learning programmes do not require the same entrance qualifications as usual <strong>Unisa</strong> degree programmes.<br />

The minimum requirement is a matric, Standard 10 or Grade 12 certificate. For this reason no SLP course will count<br />

as credit towards any <strong>for</strong>mal qualification (e.g. a degree). Also, it is necessary to have a certain amount of practical<br />

experience using a personal computer in a Windows environment <strong>for</strong> tasks like word processing.<br />

It is important to note that Short Learning Programmes are by nature short. They are not <strong>for</strong>mal qualifications.<br />

Please note that UNISA is a public higher education institution established in terms of the Higher<br />

Education Act (101/1997), and does not have or require a provider registration number at the<br />

Department of Education or SAQA.<br />

Short learning programmes at UNISA are approved by the Executive Committee of Senate and<br />

offered by virtue of the Institutional Statute of the University of South Africa. UNISA’s short learning<br />

programmes are not registered with SAQA. However, in order to place the contents of a short<br />

learning programme in perspective, the outcomes are indicated in relation to the equivalency of the<br />

number of National Qualifications Framework (NQF) credits and the level of the specific short learning<br />

programme in <strong>Unisa</strong>’s view.<br />

Short Course in Applied Project Management in an In<strong>for</strong>mation Technology<br />

Environment (70467)<br />

Duration: Semester course NQF Level 5 Credits: 12<br />

Purpose:<br />

This short course on software project management is intended <strong>for</strong> first time project managers and project<br />

managers wanting to expand and <strong>for</strong>malise their knowledge. The course aims to provide students with the basic<br />

skills, knowledge and competence to effectively understand and manage in<strong>for</strong>mation technology projects.<br />

There is a need <strong>for</strong> a project management course focusing specifically on the management of In<strong>for</strong>mation<br />

Technology (IT) projects. Most similar courses focus less on IT, <strong>for</strong>m part of a curriculum <strong>for</strong> a <strong>for</strong>mal degree,<br />

and are less skills oriented. Given the growth of the IT industry, a need exists <strong>for</strong> computer specialists, as well as<br />

project managers, to gain a practical and theoretical foundation <strong>for</strong> managing IT projects, as this area has been<br />

grossly neglected over time.<br />

There is a definite need <strong>for</strong> courses which do not require the employee to interrupt their work schedule <strong>for</strong> an<br />

extended period to obtain a <strong>for</strong>mal qualification. This certificate course fills this need as it focusses on sensitising<br />

the prospective student on concepts, techniques and strategies available to the IT project manager.<br />

Target group:<br />

This course is intended <strong>for</strong> the following target market:<br />

� Project managers working within an In<strong>for</strong>mation Technology environment looking <strong>for</strong> a certified qualification,<br />

� General project managers that also want to focus on the management of In<strong>for</strong>mation Technology related<br />

projects, and<br />

� Persons working within an In<strong>for</strong>mation Technology related environment and wishing to broaden their career<br />

path to include project management of IT projects.<br />

Admission requirements:<br />

Matriculation certificate qualification. Experience in an In<strong>for</strong>mation Technology environment or exposure to project<br />

management practice is recommended.<br />

Improtant in<strong>for</strong>mation to note:<br />

<strong>Unisa</strong> is a public higher education institution established in terms of the Higher Education Act (101/1997), and<br />

does not have or require a provider registration number at the Department of Education or SAQA.<br />

Short learning programmes at UNISA are approved by the Executive Committee of Senate and offered by virtue of<br />

the Institutional Statute of the University of South Africa. UNISA’s short learning programmes are not registered<br />

with SAQA. However, in order to place the contents of a short learning programme in perspective, the outcomes<br />

are indicated in relation to the equivalency of the number of National Qualifications Framework (NQF) credits and<br />

the level of the specific short learning programme in UNISA’s view.<br />

The short learning programmes do not require the same entrance qualifications as usual UNISA degree<br />

programmes. The minimum requirement is a matric, Standard 10 or Grade 12 certificate. For this reason no SLP<br />

course will count as credit towards any <strong>for</strong>mal qualification (e.g. a degree).<br />

For courses starting in February: 1 December until 15 January<br />

For courses starting in July: 1 May until 15 June<br />
