On our website we have several SOQ areas listed that we do not certify in.  It is best practice to not use the list on our website as guide to communicate what areas we certify in to our applicants   


Areas we DO NOT certify in: 


  • Business Machine Repair
  • Cleaning and pressing
  • Cabinet making
  • Cement laying and finishing 
  • Commercial photography
  • Floriculture
  • Forensic science
  • Hydraulics and Pneumatics
  • ICT for petrol-chemical
  • Industrial electronics
  • Industrial equipment repair
  • Instrumentation
  • Cosmetology See Cosmetology exception



If an intern does not have a bachelor's degree, they do not automatically qualify to go the professional experience path with an SOQ.  Applicants must have qualifying work experience and hold a license or certification in the area they want to pursue for certification.  Many areas of professional experience do not qualify for certification.
