South African Institute Of Valuers (SAIV) Bursary 2024


About SAIV

SAIV, also known as the South African Institute of Valuers, is a society of real estate valuers in South Africa. Established in 1909, it ranks among the country's oldest professional societies.

The primary objective of SAIV is to support, advance, and safeguard the valuation industry within the nation by unifying professionals in this field. It achieves this by providing education and mentorship to its members, thereby enhancing their knowledge and expertise, ultimately benefiting the industry.

SAIV also contributes to the sector by awarding bursaries to meet the demand for skilled professionals.

South African Institute Of Valuers (SAIV) Bursary Program

The South African Institute of Valuers extends the SAIV bursary to a select number of students pursuing property valuation qualifications, including undergraduates and postgraduates. Applications for the bursary are currently open for the 2023 academic year.

The initial bursary covers one academic year, with the possibility of extension based on the recipient's academic performance during the current year. To secure continued funding, bursary recipients are required to submit progress reports for evaluation, with funding dependent on academic achievement and other factors.

The bursary amount varies, tailored to each student's specific needs and the tuition cost quoted by their tertiary institution. This amount is directly transferred to the institution's account, covering tuition expenses, while students are responsible for other costs such as accommodation and travel.

As an added benefit, bursary recipients will receive mentorship from experienced valuers, providing valuable insights into property valuation and the industry, which can facilitate post-graduation employment opportunities.
