What is the South African Institute of Draughting (SAID)?The SAID is a professional body which was established in 1953, with the objective of improving the academic and technical qualifications of draughts people.

Why register with the SAID?Registering with INTEC and a recognised body such as the SAID, together, will assist you in todays extremely competitive employment market. More and more employers are giving preference to members of the SAID. Members of the public may also contact the SAID to check registration of draughts people. This has been made even more important for draughts people with the new statutory requirements of the Engineering Council of SA (ECSA) and the SA Council of the Architectural Profession (SACAP).

SABS Code of PracticeThe SABS Code of Drawing Practice is the standard for draughts persons in South Africa, based on international drawing standards. Adherence to these standards will ensure that youll be able to effectively communicate to any other person within the draughting and construction fields.

Draughting AccreditationINTEC College offers you Draughting training which is approved by the South African Institute of Draughting (SAID) and is fully accredited by the International Academy of Draughting recognised leaders in the Draughting field.

INTEC College has enhanced and adapted the learning material to suit distance learning.
