Northlink College is a nationally registered Further Education and Training Institution. These educational institutions are government owned and governed, in this case, by the Western Cape Education Department's Directorate for FET. The Department of Education is the official employer, but the WCED appoints a management team at each of the colleges to manage each institution and its assets on their behalf.
