College of Cape Town is a public TVET college based in Cape Town, South Africa.

History
The College of Cape Town is the oldest Further Education and Training (FET) in South Africa with a proud history dating back to the beginning of the 20th century. As the name suggests, we are based in Cape Town. Four former technical colleges, Athlone College, Cape College, Sivuyile College and Western Province Technical College were officially merged on 1st February 2002 to become the College of Cape Town. This arose from a rationalization in FET Colleges in which some 150 colleges around the country were reduced to about 50.

Campus
The College of Cape Town has eight(8) campuses located in Athlone, City, Crawford, Gardens, Gugulethu, Pinelands, Thornton and Wynberg.

Open Learning Centre
The Open learning Centre is located in the middle of the Crawford Campus and access to the facility is controlled.

All registered students, part-time or full-time, are encouraged to use the Open Learning Centre facilities to assist them in their studies. The Open Learning Centre is committed to providing an environment that is conducive to information access, research and the study to support teaching and learning.
