We have noted the significant progress made in the recruitment of the VUSSC Education Specialist and we recommend the recruitment/appointment of a part-time administrative assistant. These milestones are valued however, more clarity is required on how the TQF activities will be funded and sustained.

Consultation of the draft document both virtually and through cluster meetings, the development and registration of qualifications and further development and maintenance of th eportal as well as quality assurance are all costly and COL should assist in this regard by souring the required funds.
