The ITHSA is the official representing agent of the CTH and hence we will be able to assist you with the process of accreditation, registering of students and programme information.
To get started, the training provider needs to make contact with the ITHSA Business team, the consultant will provide the training provider with the ITHSA accreditation application.
ITHSA provider accreditation, this is the procedure:
- Complete the ITHSA accreditation application form in duplicate, submit one copy to the ITHSA and retain a copy for your records.
- Pay the Provider accreditation fee via EFT then save a copy of your proof of payment. This needs to be submitted together with the application form to ITHSA.
- The application pack can be sent either by post or electronically to info@ith.org.za. A VAT invoice is available from ITHSA upon request.
- Once your application is received by ITHSA a desktop review is conducted and then a site visit is conducted.
After a successful site visit, ITHSA will make the recommendation to CTH for accreditation.
The centre accreditation fee is R 7700.00. This fee is inclusive of the site visit, CTH application fee, a full set of materials for students and lecturers and an accreditation certificate.
Please feel free to contact our Business Development Consultant Mitchell Miles via email: mitchellm.ith.org.za if you require more details on how to get accredited.
