For Skills Development Providers
The compliance OS for South Africa's skills providers.
Digitise enrolment, Portfolio of Evidence, assessment, moderation, and NLRD / QCTO MIS reporting in one platform — purpose-built for accredited SDPs, employer-led training programmes, and the assessors and moderators who sign off on every cohort.

The shift
From paper PoE folders to one source of truth.

With eduSYMS
- Structured digital PoE per qualification
- One live source for learners, evidence, and outcomes
- Audit-ready exports generated in clicks
- Connected assessor & moderator sign-off trails
- Learners track their own evidence from a mobile app

Common questions
Skills providers · FAQ
Is digital PoE accepted by QCTO?
Yes. QCTO accepts digital Portfolio of Evidence when it's structured to qualification specifications and traceable through the assessment and moderation chain. skillSYMS is built around exactly that.
How do assessors and moderators work in eduSYMS?
Assessors and moderators get their own role-based views with structured feedback and sign-off trails. Every action is timestamped and logged — no more chasing signatures.
Does it support both occupational and accredited unit-standards programmes?
Yes. skillSYMS handles QCTO occupational qualifications and legacy SETA-accredited unit-standards programmes side by side, with the right reporting structure for each.
What about NLRD reporting?
NLRD exports are generated, validated, and packaged from your live data — not stitched at deadline. The same applies to QCTO MIS submissions.
