IMPORTANT NOTICE – CHALLENGE RELATING TO THE CATHSSETA MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

The CATHSSETA wishes to unreservedly apologise to the stakeholders regarding the unavailability of CATHSSETA’s CIMS. This is due to the migration of the hosting of the system from one service provider to a new platform from 01 August 2025.

The migration process is part of our ongoing efforts to enhance system performance, reliability, and overall user experience. It also aligns with our broader strategy to strengthen digital infrastructure and improve efficiency in service delivery across all CATHSSETA functions.
