#CollegeOfHope

Welcome to the Eastern Cape CET College, where we are committed to the pursuit of excellence and prioritizing community education and training for sustainable development.

We strive to ensure that our mission and values are lived out everyday in our college. Our programmes are accessible to everyone in our community including people with disabilities. The development and welfare of every individual is central in all that we do. We offer relevant educational skills to our community, skills that will help them in their education level as well as increase employment opportunities. We have the following programmes:

  • Literacy & Numeracy Programmes
  • Amended Senior Certificate (Matric rewrite)
  • Occupational (Skills) Programmes
  • Non Formal (Skills) Programmes

These programmes are specifically designed to enable our learners to reach their full potential academically as well as reaching their personal goals. We are committed into providing service excellence through our educational programmes stated above. We encourage transparency, accountability, discipline and team work.

In the Eastern Cape CET College we strongly believe that: “One can never be too old for education!”
