Progress in real estate education in South Africa
Abstract
This paper provides an overview of real estate educational programmes currently being offered in the Republic of South Africa as well as the role of the South African Property Education Committee in this respect. The emphasis is on programmes offered by formal tertiary educational institutions (i.e. universities and technikons) as well as on programmes offered by the major professional bodies in the field of real estate. Both undergraduate and post‐graduate courses at all universities and technikons are addressed and the implications of recent developments in this field are indicated. The background to the recently established national qualifications framework (NQF) is sketched and the present progress with the implementation of the outcomes‐based NQF with regard to real estate education is summarised. This overview provides a sound basis for comparing real estate educational programmes in South Africa with those offered in other countries.
