What the Requirements Mean
Qualification requirements
A qualification requirement tells you the educational background expected for a specific post.
Do not assume a qualification in a related subject automatically satisfies the requirement. Compare your qualification with the wording used for the vacancy.
Experience requirements
Experience requirements are important because several of these posts specify both total relevant experience and supervisory experience.
For example, the Assistant Director positions require three to five years of relevant experience and three years of supervisory experience.
Having five years of general experience does not necessarily satisfy a requirement for three years of supervisory experience.
Professional registration
Post 31/34 requires registration with SACSSP, HPCSA or EAPSA.
Where registration is stated as a prerequisite, applicants should verify their registration status before applying.
Driver’s licence
Several vacancies require a valid driver’s licence. Check the exact licence wording for your selected post.
Z83 form
The Z83 is the application form used for public service vacancies.
The DPSA’s vacancy guidance states that applications must be submitted to the department where the vacancy exists and that applicants must indicate the reference number of the vacancy.
Certified documents
The DHET advertisements state that applicants do not need to submit copies of qualifications with the initial application for the relevant posts. Shortlisted candidates will be asked to provide certified documents.
Always follow the instructions for your specific vacancy.
Who Should Apply?
You should consider applying when you meet the mandatory requirements for the particular post.
These vacancies are relevant to applicants with backgrounds in:
- Information technology
- Financial management
- Marketing and communications
- Human resource management
- Employee health and wellness
- Business administration
- Office administration
- Student placement and project administration
Applicants should compare their qualifications and experience against the full advertisement before submitting an application.
Who Should Not Apply?
You should not apply for a vacancy when you clearly fail to meet a mandatory requirement.
Examples include:
- Missing the required qualification
- Missing the required experience
- Missing mandatory supervisory experience
- Lacking required professional registration
- Not holding a required driver’s licence
- Submitting after the closing time
- Using an incorrect reference number
- Failing to provide documents required by the specific advertisement
Do not rely on the job title alone when deciding whether you qualify.
Application Checklist
Before sending your application:
- Confirm the exact post number.
- Confirm the reference number.
- Check the qualification requirement.
- Check the experience requirement.
- Check any supervisory experience requirement.
- Check professional registration requirements.
- Check the driver’s licence requirement.
- Complete the current Z83 form.
- Sign and date the Z83 where required.
- Ensure the reference number appears correctly.
- Ensure the job title is correct.
- Update your CV.
- Include relevant experience clearly.
- Include contactable references where required.
- Follow the employer’s specific submission method.
- Use the required email subject line.
- Combine attachments where the advertisement requires one PDF.
- Check the closing date.
- Check the closing time.
- Keep proof of submission.
- Save a copy of the application.
- Review the official advertisement immediately before submission.
Common Application Mistakes
1. Applying for the wrong reference number
A vacancy reference number identifies the specific post. Check the number before sending your application.
2. Ignoring supervisory experience
Some Assistant Director vacancies require supervisory experience in addition to overall relevant experience.
3. Using the wrong application email
The three institutions listed in this article use different email addresses.
4. Sending multiple attachments when one is required
Maluti TVET College specifies PDF format and one attachment for the email application.
5. Leaving the Z83 incomplete
Follow the Z83 instructions carefully and complete the required fields.
6. Missing the closing time
A closing date without checking the exact time creates avoidable risk. The six vacancies have different closing times.
7. Waiting until the final hour
Email delivery, file-size problems, internet interruptions and incorrect attachments can delay an application.
8. Sending the application to DPSA
The DPSA publishes the circular, but applications go to the institution or department named in the vacancy.
9. Assuming shortlisted applicants submit the same documents at the initial stage
The supplied DHET advertisement states that shortlisted candidates will later be asked for certified documents. Follow the exact instructions for your vacancy.
How to Apply
Each vacancy has its own application destination.

Recommended Structured Data
Use structured data only where the markup accurately describes visible content on the page.
Recommended types depend on the site’s actual implementation and visible page elements. A WebPage, BreadcrumbList and appropriate Organization or Person markup are more suitable starting points than adding unsupported job or FAQ markup.
Do not add structured data fields for information that does not appear on the page.
Do not use FAQPage markup solely to seek a Google FAQ search feature. Google deprecated FAQ rich results in 2026, so the FAQ section should exist for readers rather than as a search-feature tactic.
Final Applicant Reminder
Before submitting an application, check the official vacancy advertisement one more time.
For this DHET section, the most urgent deadline is:
Human Resource Practitioner: Employee Health and Wellness, Post 31/34, closing 4 September 2026 at 09:00.
The remaining DHET vacancies close on 11 September or 15 September 2026, depending on the post.
Use the correct reference number, current Z83 form, updated CV and application method for your selected vacancy.
The official government advertisement takes priority over this summary.
