(2) Advocate The minimum qualification for admission as an advocate in the Republic of South Africa is the LLB degree. (3) Statutory requirements for admission as an attorney or advocate Over and above the academic requirements mentioned above, certain additional statutory requirements are set for admission as an attorney or advocate. A period of service as a candidate attorney and the passing of an admission examination are required for admission as an attorney. The various Bar Councils require, inter alia, the completion of a pupillage and the passing of an examination before a person can be admitted to the Bar as an advocate. Full particulars in this connection are obtainable from the relevant local Provincial Law Society or from the relevant local Bar Council.

General Information 1.1 Admission requirements Please consult Part 1 of the Calendar It is recommended that applicants should have work experience in a security or related field e.g. the defence force, the safety field, the police service, correctional services, protection services, loss prevention, risk management or a general interest in security related matters. 1.2 Provisional admission Refer to Part 1 of the Calendar. 1.3 Recognition of prior learning The Prior Learning programme enables you to gain recognition and credit for what you already know and can do. The RPL process uses a variety of tools to help you reflect on, identify, explain and show past learning that you’ve gained through formal and informal study. You may have gained your learning through work, life experience, training, independent study, volunteering, on-the-job training opportunities, travel, community activities, family activities and experiences, hobbies or by any other means. You may apply for Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) for a specific subject or module if you can prove you’re already competent regarding the specific subject or module outcomes. The learning outcomes of a module or subject are the competencies (skills, knowledge and attitudes) you’ll be expected to have gained by the time you’ve completed that subject. Your task will be to compare the learning that has occurred during your adult life with the learning outcomes of the modules or subjects for which you want to apply for credit. You’ll have to show that you meet the set requirements or learning outcomes for those modules/subjects. As part of the RPL process, we’ll help you to identify your skills and knowledge, and to write them up in a portfolio. This will then be assessed to determine whether we can recognise your learning. Other assessment methods may include challenge examinations, interviews or an RPL assignment. If you wish to apply for RPL, please bear in mind that the full RPL process will take approximately three months after we have received your portfolio. This means that for subjects in which you have requested RPL assessment and accreditation, you must plan to register during the following registration cycle. However, you are of course free to register for non-RPL subjects at any time. In some instances you may have completed various courses at other institutions of higher learning, including the former Technikon SA. In such instances you are welcome to apply for credits or exemption at the University of South Africa if we present the same subject or module in the course you are interested in.
