(1) Umalusi may consider the certification of qualifications that are jointly quality assured with other quality councils.

 

(2) Should Umalusi agree to certify a qualification (or a variant of a registered qualification) in terms of an inter-governmental agreement, Umalusi will advise the relevant minister of education regarding the role and responsibilities it is able to undertake in respect of the agreement and will issue directives for certification in this regard.

 

(3) Where it has been agreed among the parties that Umalusi will serve as the certification body on behalf of the ministry of education of another state or will recognise subjects from a foreign qualification as part of a registered South African qualification, such a body will have to adhere to the quality assurance and certification requirements determined by Umalusi.
