- If students want to get recognized credits for the short course and engage with it more formally, they can attend the 2 days of lectures, will have to write 2 tests, submit 2 assignments, write an exam, and complete a practical element of Work Based Learning, after which they will have achieved 20 credits at NQF level 5 and would be able to continue with more formal FM studies later on if they decided to do the formal HCFM program or an accredited program at another tertiary institution.
