COURSE BACKGROUND
What is a bridging course?
A bridging course is a preparatory program that helps students, especially mature learners, prepare for higher education. These short courses are designed to help individuals meet the academic requirements for specific study programs, enabling a smoother transition into university or college.
Purpose of a Bridging Course
These programs are aimed at bridging the gap between high school and tertiary education. They focus on improving academic skills and knowledge, providing the foundation needed to succeed in higher education. Bridging courses typically range from six months to one year and offer an essential pathway to specific qualifications and career opportunities.
At Greenview College, we offer bridging courses for students who have not completed matric. These courses are an alternative route for students to fulfill the entry requirements for their desired programs.


Who is the bridging course for?
If you wish to pursue a national diploma or certificate but do not meet the minimum requirements, a bridging course is the perfect option. Instead of returning to high school to complete matric, you can enroll in a bridging program to improve your qualifications and move closer to your academic and career goals.
Requirements
To enroll in a bridging program, the typical requirement is completion of Grade 10, which is the minimum academic level for most courses.
