Rostec Technical FET College (Pty) Ltd is a private further education and training (FET) institution established in 2001, offering technical and vocational training in fields such as engineering (including Boiler Making, Chemical Engineering and Civil Engineering), business management and administration, health sciences (Ancillary Health Care, Child and Youth Care), and vocational studies, plus matric rewrite and high school programmes. It is self-funded and does not receive government subsidies. According to its official website, the college holds accreditation with Umalusi and the Quality Council for Trades and Occupations (QCTO), and its courses fall under Department of Higher Education and Training (DHET) frameworks (e.g. NATED programmes); it also references accreditation with several SETAs (SASSETA, HWSETA, MICT SETA, AgriSETA). The website does not publish specific accreditation/registration numbers, instead directing verification to the DHET's official register of private colleges. Rostec operates six campuses across South Africa — its main campus in Vereeniging, plus Pretoria, Johannesburg, Bloemfontein, Rustenburg and Polokwane — as well as a campus in Uganda. The college states it has trained over 100,000 learners since founding, with roughly 10,800 students reported at the time of research.
