RPL ASSESSMENT: YOUR SECOND OPPORTUNITY
Over 10 500 candidates took advantage of the March 2004 assessment
exercise in an attempt to ensure compliance with the Fit and Proper
Determination. Fit and Proper is subordinate legislation to the FAIS Act, which
stipulates that financial service providers register their practices under the
FAIS Act and are licensed in terms of the Fit and Proper Determination.
INSETA hopes that those who undertook the first round of assessments were
successful in their endeavours.
However, if you missed out on this opportunity to become Fit and Proper,
kindly note that UNISA will be running a second RPL assessment exercise
from 17 May to 20 May 2004.
Candidates who were deemed “not competent” after the first assessment are
also allowed to take the May assessment, with question papers for this
assessment exercise also being available in the medium of Afrikaans.
The second round of assessments is supported by INSETA and will be written
at UNISA’s examination venues countrywide.
