Congratulations on completing your proficiency training. This is a testament to your dedication and hard work, and we are here to guide you through applying for your new competency from SAPS, which is a direct result of your exceptional training.

Please follow the easy steps to get the information ready in order to complete the form below to allow us to complete your motivation:

1. Personal detail:

  • Full names and surname
  • Your ID Number
  • Your cell phone number

2. We will need the following images from you, to upload (in png, jpg or gif format, not larger than 5mb per photo):

  • ID copy x 2
  • Passport photos x 2
  • Course certificate
  • Statement of Results
  • 3 x testimonials from friends, 1 x family or 1 x colleagues that contain the following information:
    i. The person writing the affidavit’s full name, surname, address, contact number, and ID number.
    ii. How many years have you known you?

After completing the form below, you will be redirected to the New SAPS Competency Application product page from where you can pay for this service.  Once the payment has been processed, we will contact you if the information is unclear.  Once the motivation has been completed I will send you a PDF copy of your complete motivation as well as the list of support documents you need to gather, to conclude your application. Please allow 7 working days for the completion of the motivation.

We will always strive for success. No one can guarantee a successful application. Too many factors and people are involved in the SAPS system. So far, we have been on the better end of having a 100% approval rate after more than x 4500+ applications done.
