CAO FET Operational Guidelines Timeline:

• The CAO FET Portal enables FET/CAO learners to apply for their chosen courses through a central portal with applications to be managed through FETCH / PLSS. • The CAO FET Portal closes on 1st July 2027 whereafter, FET applicants will be diverted to make direct entry with their chosen college

Phases:

• Once application submitted through CAO (or directly through GTI onto CAO nominated course), applicant receives communication from GTI informing them of acknowledgement of application, required aptitude tests, interviews, and requested documentation to determine the applicant as a suitable candidate for a place to be offered. • Once deemed suitable for the course, a course offer can be made to applicant as is appropriate to local business processes
