Certification is when a person is said to fit and to able to do whatever is needed in their profession. A person is given a certificate to prove this. This means that if you want to be certified, you must take exams of some sort to prove that you are capable of doing your job. When you are certified, you will receive a certificate.
Not all Certificate programmes require a Matric Certificate as a minimum entrance requirement. This means that students who did not complete Matric can still further their education. A person can then get a Certificate that would be equal to or at a higher level than Grade 10-12 qualifications.
You can get certification in almost any area, for example accounting and finance.
Certification is achieved by doing a course that is focussed on a specific subject or profession. These are certificate courses and can be done at most FET (Further Education Training) or higher education colleges. The courses have specific outcomes and you have to write (and pass!) exams before you can get the certificate. You need to enrol at the educational institute of your choice and they will help you from your first day until you complete your course and get your certificate. Even if you study from home, you will get all the help you need.
