Subject Choices
The diploma in Asset Management consists of a number of comprehensive and short courses, combined in one coherent logical diploma that specialises in one of the main areas of specialisation in industrial maintenance. Prospective students need to choose courses from the existing comprehensive and short courses presented by the Terotechnica Asset Management College – the specific course combination has to make sense and has thus to be approved by the College before enrollment. There are six standardised diplomas available. Only in exceptional cases will different subject combinations be allowed.
The course combination should add up to at least 88 credits, chosen from the following list of courses:

The choices of subjects for inclusion into a diploma must take the NQF levels of the courses chosen into account. At least 25 percent (22) of the credits must come from NQF level 6 courses. The inclusion of C101 in a diploma has to be approved on a case by case basis. The standard Diplomas awarded can be seen here.
