    <div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi, <br>
      If you are considering a career in GISc (in South Africa),
      especially if you already have a degree, can I strongly suggest
      that you consider registering yourself with PLATO in one of the
      GISc categories.<br>
      <br>
      For your existing degree(s), get the transcripts (not your
      results, but the details of the course contents for the courses
      you have completed).<br>
      <br>
      Go to <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.plato.org.za/4regnotesprof.php">http://www.plato.org.za/4regnotesprof.php</a> <b><u>and click
          on the GISc tab</u></b> - Near the bottom of this page you
      will find links to the "Self Assessment Tool".<br>
      Use this tool to compare the course contents you have completed,
      against the ones that are required for PLATO registration. You
      will likely have to take (say) one of your courses and split them
      content percentage-wise across more than one PLATO knowledge area.
      This is to be expected, so filling in the self-assessment tool is
      not a 5 minute exercise.<br>
      <br>
      Note that the UNIGIS courses are accredited for PLATO registration
      <u><b>dependent on your underlying degree</b></u>. This dependency
      is because the UNIGIS courses are post-grad courses.<br>
      Contact UNIGIS for further info.<br>
      <br>
      Note that you do not have to study at a PLATO-accredited learning
      institution in order to attain PLATO registration. It is just that
      if you have studied elsewhere, you will need to do a laborious
      comparison of your courses against the PLATO requirements using
      the self-assessment tool, which will (may) highlight deficiencies.
      Such deficiencies can usually be filled in with single "top-up"
      course.<br>
      <br>
      Hope this helps.<br>
      Kind regards,<br>
      Zoltan<br>

              I think University of Stellenbosch has a great diverse
              post graduate
              Geography/Geoinformatic degrees. You should go onto their
              site and have a look.
              As far as I know the earliest research in geography and
              GIS in SA had started
              with that university so you should have a look.<br>
