DYPA SAEK vocational training enrollment deadline set for September 10

Successful applicants for the Higher Vocational Training Schools (SAEK) of DYPA must complete their enrollment process by September 10, 2026, between 09:00 and 14:00. This deadline applies to those who applied through the Parallel Preference Scheme for the 2026-2027 academic year. Failure to meet this deadline results in the loss of the right to enroll via this specific process.

Applicants can submit their required documentation either in person at their assigned SAEK facility or electronically via email. For electronic submissions, files must be correctly named using the applicant's surname in Latin characters. Required documents include a photocopy of a high school diploma or equivalent, a photocopy of an ID or passport, AMKA and AFM certifications, and proof of family status. Documentation for special cases, such as large or single-parent families, may also be submitted.

The SAEK programs consist of five semesters of training. The first four semesters involve up to 1,200 hours of theoretical and laboratory training, followed by a final semester of 960 hours of paid practical internship. Students enrolled in these programs cannot simultaneously enroll in other secondary, post-secondary, or tertiary education structures, such as EPAL or universities.
