National Certificate in Chemical Engineering (N4-N6)

The programme progresses through three levels. Each N level takes place over one trimester. After each trimester, students are eligible for a National Certificate on that level.

We recommend continuing through all three levels in order to qualify for the National Diploma. The National Diploma requires students to work for 24 months in the Chemical field before they are entitled to receive a National Diploma.
