Do you cover the full SAGS/CAPS curriculum?

Yes

Why do you separate the LO manuals and CAPS eBooks?

We want to avoid overloaded, content-heavy manuals. We want to grab scholars’ attention and keep them interested. Think ‘anti-textbook’!

How do you tackle GR 12 content for an IEB school?

We understand that time is extremely limited in GR 12. For IEB schools, we provide resources that cover the 3 internal tasks, are customised to support the facilitation of CAT A and preparation for CAT B. For a 1 page flyer explaining this in more detail, email info@achievecareers.co.za

What is the difference between the LO manual/CAPS eBook?

With regards to the programme, the LO manual addresses the main topics that are relevant to scholars today. The CAPS eBook provides additional topics, so as to make sure that the entire curriculum is covered.

Can schools who run workshops or LO days with scholars for Life Orientation use the programme?

We do have an option to structure our content for a workshop/island/LO day format for LO. We work with several schools who adopt this approach. For more information, contact info@achievecareers.co.za

Why is the LO programme updated annually?

With the ever-changing world that we live in, we need to ensure that the content remains abreast with current trends and information, ensuring continuous benchmarking with international standards. The nature of LO topics such as social media, CV compilation, university applications and interview skills are continuously evolving and it our objective is to ensure that scholars are provided with current and relevant information.

Can schools re-use the same edition each year?

The Achieve Careers programme is regularly updated; therefore, schools are required to renew their licence with Achieve Careers. This requirement is outlined in the Achieve Careers copyright agreement.

The books serve both as comprehensive notes that scholars carry through to the next academic year and as interactive workbooks in which they write, annotate, highlight and engage actively with the content throughout the learning process.

Does the programme meet the IEB requirements?

Achieve Careers works mostly with IEB schools and we remain up-to-date with the IEB requirements. This is our niche focus. From GR 10 we build a strong focus on critical thinking skills and multiple perspectives to ensure that scholars are well equipped to answer their GR 12 CAT.

Why can't scholars using eBooks via IT Schools platform/Snapplify type in the eBooks?

The key difference between eBooks on miEbooks (from ITSI) and Snapplify Reader (from Snapplify) is that you can type directly into the answer blocks using Snapplify Reader. It is possible to add notes to the book from ITSI, but not to type into the answer blocks.
