Advanced Certificate in Management (ACM)

The Advanced Certificate in Management is an intermediate, post-school, higher education qualification designed to equip the student with the skills necessary to function in the varied management contexts relevant to South African businesses.

The Advanced Certificate in Management is designed to produce employees who are able to work in the different management functions needed by most businesses.

This qualification provides an “intermediate level of higher education knowledge”, and ensures that the qualifying student is able to “[apply] such knowledge and competence in an occupation or role in the workplace” (HEQF).

The programme is therefore suitable for:

• a person who wishes to enter a middle management position, or
• a person who has achieved another qualification in an applied area of practice or a non-vocational area and seeks a more business-oriented qualification, or
• an employed person wishing to enhance, develop or formalise his/her skills and knowledge with a qualification in this area.
