The main concern of the certain stakeholders at the North West University was the delay in the implementation of transformation. Social cohesion in the university seemed very far from being achieved. With the university having 63% of its staff being white and 75% of students at the Potchefstroom being Afrikaans speakers, the merger of the university had not yet achieve integration. However, the university was well managed with very good governance accompanied by very good graduation rate which was among the highest in the country. Lastly, the Orbit FET college was a good model of a FET college that the country needed. It was the first time that the Committee visited a college with strong leadership and dedicated management. The partnership that the college had with industries was commendable and students were being placed in employment upon completing their studies.
