Umfolozi TVET College is one of nine public TVET colleges in KwaZulu-Natal (one of 50 nationally), based in the Richards Bay area of northern KZN. Secondary sources indicate it operates eight main campuses — Chief Albert Luthuli, Eshowe, Esikhawini, Mandeni, Richtek, Sundumbili/Isithebe, Bambanana and Nkandla — plus several smaller skills centres (including Jininindomnyama, Nseleni, Thubelihle, Alton and Maphumulo). IMPORTANT: the college's official website (umfolozicollege.co.za) is currently down — it returns a hosting-provider 'Account Suspended' page (redirecting to /cgi-sys/suspendedpage.cgi), confirmed live during this research. As a result, establishment history, current student numbers, and an authoritative programme list could not be verified from the primary source and are not reported here beyond the campus names found via secondary listings.
Programmes Offered
- NOT VERIFIABLE FROM OFFICIAL SOURCE: the college website is suspended (hosting account suspended notice), so no programme list could be confirmed directly from umfolozicollege.co.za.
- Secondary sources describe general TVET-typical fields (engineering/technology, business and management, hospitality and tourism, information technology, agriculture) but specific NCV/NATED programme names could not be confirmed against the official site and are omitted to avoid fabrication.
Bursaries That May Apply Here
