Corrections Policy

Last updated: 10 September 2026

At MyEduCareers, we are committed to providing accurate, useful and up-to-date information about jobs, learnerships, internships, bursaries, apprenticeships, skills programmes and education opportunities in South Africa.

Despite our efforts to verify information before publication, mistakes or outdated information can sometimes occur. Opportunities may also change after an article has been published.

This Corrections Policy explains how we handle factual errors, updates and reader feedback.

1. Our Commitment to Accuracy

We make reasonable efforts to ensure that information published on MyEduCareers is accurate at the time of publication.

This may include checking information against official websites, announcements, application platforms and other reliable sources.

However, we cannot guarantee that every piece of information will remain accurate after publication because organisations may change their requirements, deadlines, programme details or application procedures.

2. What We Correct

We may correct or update information including:

• Incorrect application requirements;
• Incorrect closing dates;
• Incorrect stipend or salary information;
• Incorrect programme details;
• Incorrect eligibility information;
• Broken or incorrect application links;
• Incorrect organisation information;
• Typographical or factual errors;
• Outdated application instructions; and
• Other information that could materially mislead readers.

Minor spelling, grammar or formatting issues may also be corrected without a separate correction notice.

3. How to Report an Error

If you believe an article contains incorrect or outdated information, please contact us.

When reporting an error, please provide:

1. The title or link to the relevant article;
2. A clear explanation of the information you believe is incorrect; and
3. Supporting information or a link to an official source where available.

Providing a reliable source helps us investigate the issue more quickly.

4. How We Review Corrections

When we receive a correction request, we may review the relevant information against available reliable sources.

For employment and education opportunities, we may give priority to information published by:

• Government departments;
• Employers;
• Universities;
• TVET colleges;
• SETAs;
• Training providers; and
• Other organisations responsible for the relevant opportunity.

We may contact or check the relevant organisation’s official channels when necessary.

Not every correction request will result in a change. We may decline to make a correction when the information cannot be independently verified or when available evidence does not support the requested change.

5. Updating Published Articles

When information changes after an article has been published, we may update the article rather than treat the change as an original error.

Examples include:

• A closing date being extended;
• An application deadline changing;
• An employer updating requirements;
• An application link being replaced;
• A programme being temporarily paused; or
• An organisation providing additional information.

Where appropriate, we may include an update note so readers can understand that the article has been revised.

6. Significant Corrections

If an important factual error could materially affect a reader’s decision to apply for an opportunity, we aim to correct it promptly after the error has been confirmed.

Significant corrections may involve information such as:

• Eligibility requirements;
• Closing dates;
• Application methods;
• Stipend or salary amounts;
• Programme availability; or
• The identity of the organisation offering an opportunity.

Where appropriate, we may add a correction or update notice to the article.

7. Corrections to Closing Dates

Closing dates deserve particular attention because they can change without notice.

If an organisation extends, changes or withdraws an application deadline, we may update the relevant article when the new information can be verified.

Readers should always confirm the current closing date through the official application source before applying.

8. Outdated Opportunities

An opportunity may become unavailable after publication.

When we become aware that an opportunity has closed or is no longer available, we may:

• Update the article;
• Add an appropriate notice;
• Remove outdated application instructions; or
• Remove the article where appropriate.

Older articles may remain available for informational or historical purposes, but readers should not assume that an opportunity remains open simply because an article is still accessible.

9. Reader Feedback

We value feedback from our readers.

Readers may help us identify information that has changed or was incorrectly reported.

However, comments, messages or reports from readers are not automatically treated as verified facts. We may need to investigate information before making an editorial change.

10. Corrections and Editorial Independence

Corrections are based on accuracy and available evidence.

MyEduCareers does not change factual information simply because an individual, company or organisation disagrees with the way an opportunity has been described.

Where appropriate, we will review concerns objectively and make changes when reliable evidence supports a correction.

11. Transparency

We aim to be transparent when making significant corrections or updates.

Where appropriate, an article may include language such as:

Updated: The article was updated to reflect new information from the relevant organisation.

or

Correction: An earlier version of this article contained incorrect information. The relevant information has been corrected.

The exact format may depend on the nature and significance of the correction.

12. No Guarantee of Real-Time Information

MyEduCareers is an information platform and does not guarantee real-time information about every job, learnership, internship, bursary or education programme.

Organisations may change information without notifying us.

For this reason, readers should always verify important details through the official source before submitting an application or personal information.
