Graduation Ceremony: First SAPS Trainees Complete Non-Commissioned Police Official Programme

The Safety and Security Sector Education and Training Authority (SASSETA), in collaboration with the South African Police Service (SAPS), hosts a graduation ceremony for the first group of SAPS trainees who successfully complete the Occupational Certificate: Non-Commissioned Police Official programme. A total of 138 SAPS trainees are officially found competent in this occupational qualification, accredited by the Quality Council for Trades and Occupations (QCTO). As the QCTO’s delegated Quality Partner, SASSETA oversees and manages the implementation of External Integrated Summative Assessments (EISA) for occupational qualifications. The graduates complete an outcomes-based training programme designed to provide them with the practical skills, ethical foundation, and operational competence needed in the field of law enforcement. The qualification aims to ensure that police officials are well-prepared to serve communities with integrity, discipline, and professionalism. The Non-Commissioned Police Official qualification plays a crucial role in strengthening the foundation of policing in South Africa. These officials are the first point of contact with the public and are vital to maintaining law and order, ensuring community safety, and promoting justice and accountability. “We commend each graduate for their perseverance, professionalism, and dedication. Their success reflects the excellent support from facilitators, assessors, and the broader training teams who ensure that learning meets national standards. As these newly qualified officials take up their duties, we are confident they will contribute meaningfully to safer communities,” says Mr. Eric Tshilimbavhunwa, SASSETA Interim Board Chairperson.
