Which qualification should a Unisa first-time applicant select?

Your first step should be to determine what types of changes you want to prepare for.

The next step is to conduct research on yourself (your interests, values, and skills) and employment options (through Google and job websites, in-person and online conversations with professionals, job shadowing, and volunteer work). This procedure will assist you in determining which qualifications are more relevant to your job. Complete the career counselling tasks to assist you in deciding what to study.
