From 1 July 2026, all new learners must enrol in the new occupational replacement qualifications. If you complete your N6 programme before 30 June 2026, you will still be eligible to apply for and receive the National N-Diploma. However, if you complete your studies after this date, you will receive a Statement of Results for the new occupational qualification instead. This makes it urgent for all 2026 N6 graduates to secure and commence their 18-month WIL placement as soon as possible.
