The Higher Education Qualifications Framework (HEQF) was published on 5 October 2007 by the Minister of Education (Government Gazette, Volume 508, No 30353).

As an initial communiqué preceding the announcement of transitional arrangements by the Minister of Education, the DoE, SAQA and the CHE/HEQC have put together FAQs on the HEQF to enable institutions to initiate discussion and planning towards HEQF-alignment of your institution's qualifications. Detailed guidelines from all the relevant regulatory bodies will be made available in 2008.
