Concerns have been raised regarding the increase in people faking their qualifications and selling qualification documents.
Last year Higher Education
Minister Blade Nzimande said qualifications fraud poses a danger to the
credibility of the country’s education system.
CEO of South Africa’s Qualification
Authority Joe Samuels said they are developing internal capacity to identify
fraudulent foreign qualifications more effectively.
Samuels said over the last few
months we have had a couple of prominent people that have been on the news for
qualification fraud that is why people think it is prevalent.
“What we have been finding
over the last number of years that we have been stricter on this is that on
average it is not a huge problem however I think we have a number of high
profile cases and that is making the news” Samuels added.
