The Department of Afrikaans and Dutch offers several
credit-bearing postgraduate short courses within the field of language practice
and acquisition. These courses are each spread over the course of one academic
semester, and are presented as distance education, with two compulsory contact
sessions per semester on the SU Campus. These courses are therefore
particularly suitable for those who wish to acquire further skills, but who
cannot engage in full-time postgraduate studies. Assessment will take place, with successful candidates receiving
a competency certificate from the SU.
The following short courses will be presented:
- Translation Methodology
- Vertaalpraktyk Translation Practice
