PURPOSE AND RATIONALE OF THE QUALIFICATION 
Purpose:

This qualification recognises demonstrated core knowledge, skills, and competence in music areas of performance, composition, theory, analysis and music industry. It enables the development of competencies and other related skills in music, and other performing arts sub-fields. The qualification is the second of several levels in the sub-field of Music, and may lead to higher level music and music industry qualifications.

Learners who have completed this qualification will have the necessary competencies to enter the Music Industry at the intermediate level on some occupational routes. The qualification is intended for learners who aspire to either gain a further insight, or those who wish to use this Qualification to move higher on the NQF either in terms of the Music Industry or transporting some of the competencies towards achieving related qualifications. The cumulative knowledge, skills and attitudes obtained from this qualification will act as a further access point to the Music Industry.

The learner assessed as competent against this Qualification will be able to:
  • Communicate in a variety of ways to achieve personal and music organisational objectives.
  • Use mathematics and mathematical thinking to solve every day problems for oneself, music organisation and sector.
  • Apply elementary music knowledge.
  • Demonstrate elementary knowledge of the music industry.
  • Apply life and work skills in the music work place.
  • Perform on a minimum of one chosen music instrument, including the voice.

    Rationale:

    This qualification provides the means to take forward a broad basic musical background to acquire deeper musical understanding and more refined musical language and to demonstrate skills in composing, performing, listening and presenting. These activities will provide opportunities for the articulation of understanding through the use of a wide musical vocabulary.

    Music is both an industry and an art form, meeting cultural and recreational needs while also offering major employment opportunities across many sectors of economic activity. The music industry has developed into a major employer, particularly of young people, in many countries around the world.

    Young musicians have to be equipped with the necessary knowledge, skills and attitudes to ensure a sustained success. Musicians with the attainment of this qualification, will gain a suitable career change when necessary. This qualification is the second in the learning pathway for music practice. It will build on the foundation of the entry-level qualification at NQF level 2 (basic) and will provide learners with further knowledge and ability to strengthen the competencies to sustain a career in the Music Industry. The targeted learners should have musical potential and can be drawn from:
  • Unemployed youth.
  • School leavers.
  • Unemployed adults.
  • Entrepreneurs.
  • Musicians wishing to achieve formal recognition by RPL.
  • Hobbyist.

    Furthermore, it will serve all learners who want to broaden their knowledge in the music industry, wishing to gain formal or recognised industry related training. Social and economic rationales for this qualification include encouragement of redress, facilitation of access to credit, career development and general learning. Although the qualification contains industry specific generic components, learners will also be equipped to perform a wide range of music industry functions.

    Some examples of the careers that the National Certificate in Music Practice may lead to are listed below:
  • Live Performance.
  • Music Publishing.
  • Song Writing.
  • Sound Engineering.
  • Music Production.
  • Music Management.
  • Music Technicians.
  • Music Promoters.
  • Music Sales and Merchandising.
  • Music wholesalers and Distributors. 

  • LEARNING ASSUMED TO BE IN PLACE AND RECOGNITION OF PRIOR LEARNING 
    It would be desirable for learners wishing to access this Qualification to be competent at:
  • Language and Communication at NQF level 2 or equivalent
  • Mathematical Literacy at NQF level 2 or equivalent
  • Musical instrument (basic) at NQF level 2 or equivalent
  • Aural skills (basic) at NQF level 2 or equivalent

    Recognition of Prior Learning:

    This Qualification and all the fundamental, core and elective Unit Standards associated with it, as described in the rules of combination, can be achieved by any learner through the recognition of prior learning, which includes learning outcomes achieved through formal, informal and non-formal learning and work experience. The exit-level outcomes and the related Unit Standards may also be achieved through the recognition of prior learning.

    Access to the qualification:

    There are no access limitations on any learners or classes of learners for this Qualification, besides the recommendations in the learning assumptions outlined above. 

  • RECOGNISE PREVIOUS LEARNING? 

    QUALIFICATION RULES 
    The qualifying learner will achieve this Qualification by complying with the following rules of combination for the accumulation of credits:

    Learning Component: Credits
  • All fundamental Unit Standards: 36
  • All Core Unit Standards: 87
  • Elective Unit Standards: 10

    ASSOCIATED ASSESSMENT CRITERIA 
    1.
  • Oral communication is maintained and adapted to meet personal and organisational needs and expectations.
  • Texts are interpreted and responded to in writing using a range of contexts in the music organisation.
  • Language and communication is used to interpret and respond to texts in occupational learning programmes.

    2.
  • Statistics, probability and probability models are used to solve a range of contextual problems.
  • Mathematical number systems, shape, and motion analysis are used to solve a range of life related problems.
  • Mathematics is used to investigate and monitor the financial aspects of personal and community life.

    Integrated assessment:

    Integrated assessment at the level of the Qualification provides an opportunity for learners to show that they are able to integrate concepts, ideas and actions across Unit Standards to achieve competence that is grounded and coherent in relation to the purpose of the Qualification. Integrated assessment should show how already demonstrated competence in individual areas can be linked and applied for the achievement of a holistic outcome as described in the exit level outcomes.

    Integrated assessment must judge the quality of the observable performance, and also the quality of the thinking that lies behind it. Assessment tools must encourage learners to give an account of the thinking and decision-making that underpin their demonstrated performance. Some assessment practices will demand practical evidence while others may be more theoretical, depending on the type of outcomes to be assessed. The ratio between action and interpretation is not fixed, but varies according to the demands of the particular exit level outcome of the Qualification.

    While the generic component (communication, mathematical literacy, music workplace skills) of this Qualification at NQF Level 3 can be assessed through occupational contexts and activities relating to the music industry, care must be taken in both the learning programme and the assessment to ensure that these foundational skills are portable. The primary aim of this Qualification is to ensure that learners have a sound base of general education to prepare them for further learning, whatever career path they may choose. Learners must be able to transfer generic skills across a number of different contexts, and apply them within a number of learning areas.

    A broad range of task-orientated and theoretical assessment tools may be used, with the distinction between practical knowledge and disciplinary knowledge maintained so that each takes its rightful place. 

  • INTERNATIONAL COMPARABILITY 
    Research indicates that music skills and knowledge may be transferred to the learner from a range of sources. These may include communal, informal, incidental, religious and formal sources of learning. Private providers worldwide offer short courses in music making on a chosen instrument, including voice. These learning programmes may include e-learning, part-time study and distance learning. Such short courses focus on the application of playing skills on a chosen instrument and often lack an all round music foundation.

    The most common approach is to access a short learning programme or a short course as is offered worldwide. Examples of some of these are in:

    France, Spain, Denmark, England

    The following institutions are examples of some institutions that offer full-time academic courses:
  • Brighton Institute of Modern Music: bimm.co.uk
  • KBA software: www.musicstudy.com
  • The Academy of Contemporary Music: www.acm.ac.uk
  • Brit School, Croydon, England www.brit.croydon.sch.uk
  • LIPA (Liverpool Institute of Performing Arts reception@lipa.ac.uk; www.@lipa.ac.uk)
  • Rhythmic Academy, Copenhagen www.rmc.dk
  • Powerhouse, London Fax (020) 8740 8422
  • Music Academy International, Nancy, France mail@cube.org ; www.cube.org.maie
  • Taller de Musics, Barcelona, Spain escla@tallerdemusics.com; wwwtallermusics.com
  • The Academy of Contemporary Music: www.acm.ac.uk

    The core competencies addressed in these institutions are similar to the ones in this qualification. These include:
  • Music theory
  • Performance
  • Establishing Stage presence
  • Arranging Music
  • Keyboard skills
  • Music instrument skills

    The South African NQF does not register qualifications less than 120 credits and it is for this reason that this qualification has been enhanced to align to the South African requirements.

    Africa and Asia:

    Comparable examples of music qualifications at this level were not located in any Asian and other African countries. The only information available relates to music as a school subject.

    Market share of music related sales indicates that the United States of America and Europe account for approximately sixty percent of the world market. Best practice was therefore associated with these countries.

    This National Certificate in Music Practice has been designed to develop the whole individual while the examples located develop a range of job related skills only. These courses and programmes are focussed only on vocational knowledge and skills. In this sense there is a differing emphasis in the qualification for the learners. This National Certificate: Music Practice at NQF level 3, although for a South African context, has been compared with Qualifications from these countries:
  • Australia
  • New Zealand
  • United Kingdom
  • United States of America

    United Kingdom:

    The qualification compares closely to qualifications offered in the following institutions below which offer short courses in the competencies similar to those in this qualification. Research indicates that music skills and knowledge may be transferred to the learner from a range of sources. These may include communal, informal, incidental, religious and formal sources of learning. Private providers world-wide offer short courses in music making on a chosen instrument, including voice. These learning programmes may include e-learning, part-time study and distance learning. Such short courses focus on the application of playing skills on a chosen instrument and often lack an all round musical development.

    SADC

    A comparison in the SADC region, revealed no NQF aligned music qualifications at level 3. In Malawi, Namibia, Botswana, Zambia, Zimbabwe and Tanzania music as a qualification is offered from the equivalent of NQF Level 5. Music below NQF level 5, is offered in SADC as a subject in formal education, where learners exit at the equivalent of matric

    In South Africa the music sector is concerned about a large number of relatively young musicians who drop out of school, to pursue a career in music without the basic knowledge and skills that would ensure the survival of their enterprises

    In Malawi, The Kamuzu Academy offers an international curriculum of Music study, training students up to Advanced Levels. The other music qualification offered by the University of Malawi is a 4 year BA and B.Ed degree. The area of learning covered are outlined below:

    First Year:
  • Elements of Music

    Second Year
  • Music Theory/Composition
  • Ethnomusicology/ African Music
  • Musiciaship I
  • Piano/Instrument/Voice

    Third Year
  • Music Theory /Composition II
  • Ethnomusicology African Music II
  • Musiciaship II
  • Piano/Instrument/Voice II
  • Special Paper in Ethnomusicology I

    Fourth Year
  • Music Theory/Composition III
  • Ethmusicology /African Music III

    Aspects of the above qualification that compare to this qualification include, Music theory, Piano/ Instruments and Voice.

    In Zimbabwe, The Zimbabwe College of Music, under its Ethnomusicology Programme, offers a two-year, National Certificate in Music. This programme is designed for experienced Music teachers who have diplomas from Teacher Training Colleges and who wish to specialize in Music as a teaching subject. This programme includes an intensive study of African and western music with a focus on the teaching of African music. This does not compare with this qualification.

    USA

    University of Harvard undergraduate courses found at www.harvard.educ, whose duration ranges between 1, 2, 3 and 4 years, concentration is on:
  • Music theory
  • Various music contexts including Western music
  • Arranging Music

Some Primary or Delegated Quality Assurance Functionaries have a lag in their recording systems for provider accreditation, in turn leading to a lag in notifying SAQA of all the providers that they have accredited to offer qualifications and unit standards, as well as any extensions to accreditation end dates. The relevant Primary or Delegated Quality Assurance Functionary should be notified if a record appears to be missing from here.
