Boost your knowledge and add value to your CV with a Sage University Certification
The Value of a Sage University Certification
- This certification will help to open doors for you.
- Sage Pastel is South Africa’s market leader in Accounting Software.
- 9 Out of 10 Accountants use Sage Pastel Accounting.
- One of the requirements for most admin or clerical positions you would apply for is a Sage Pastel Certification.
Many students attend a Sage Training course but don’t write the assessment and obtain their certificate.
We encourage all our students to write the online assessment and obtain the certificate, and these are the reasons why:
- Most employers insist on seeing the certification rather than taking the prospective employee’s word on whether they can do the job.
- A Sage University certification is a globally accepted means of assessing an essential set of abilities.
- When employees are confident, they will deliver a significant return on investment back to their employer.
- A Sage University certification is evidence that an employee is competent enough to perform the tasks assigned to him/her.
- The certification shows the determination and ability of an employee to complete a task.
- A Sage University certification allows employees to apply their skills immediately after completing accreditation training.
When will I receive a Sage University Certification?
You will only receive your certification once you have passed the Sage University Online Assessment related to your course.
The Sage University Certificates are available in PDF format for the reasons:
- Electronic certificates decreases their carbon footprint.
- There is no chance of a student’s certificate being lost in the post.
- Certificates can now be easily attached when e-mailing CVs within the workplace.
- If certificates are deleted by accident, students can log into the Sage University Profile and re-print their certificate.
