The admission requirements for this programme will adhere to the University of Johannesburg’s Admission and Selection Policy that is current at the time of the registration for this programme.

You should have one of the following:

• New or old NQF Level 6 qualification with three years’ relevant work experience in financial markets 
  OR
• New or old NQF Level 6 qualification in finance 
  OR
• Five years’ relevant work experience in financial markets

Meeting the minimum admission requirements does not assure acceptance into the programme, as you will undergo a selection process as determined by the Department of Finance and Investment Management. If you have an NQF Level 6 qualification with three years’ relevant work experience or only relevant work experience, you will write an entrance exam to determine if you have the necessary foundational knowledge to proceed with the Advanced Diploma. If you do not pass the exam, you will be able to do certain short learning programmes (which are in development) so that your knowledge is at the correct level before doing the Advanced Diploma.

The decision to recommend admission is made by the programme coordinator who will evaluate you (via Skype or by other appropriate means). During the selection process, the programme coordinator will consider your career history. The programme coordinator may also request you to perform certain discipline-related writing or practical skills tasks as a means of assessing the breadth and depth of your knowledge and skills before making a final admission decision.

You further need to have strong general computer skills and reliable access to the internet, as the programme is offered fully online. If you do not have reliable internet access you will not be able to participate fully in the learning activities for each module.

The international equivalence of qualifications will be specified in the prospectus.
