As businesses around the world begin to reopen after months of lockdown periods, many of our students are asking how it will affect being able to attend the training courses required for their careers.

  1. Is it possible for a potential student from South Africa to enrol for an engineering course in the current covid situation?

    1. Yes, it is possible. You will need to check with immigration for the up to date travel requirements prior to coming, however there have been lots of students coming from overseas throughout the pandemic period.
