The learnership aims to bridge the gap between education and employment for Emalahleni residents, particularly youth and jobseekers with limited qualifications.

By combining 6 months of classroom-based theoretical training with 6 months of hands-on workplace experience, the programme equips participants with practical skills and a national qualification to enhance their career prospects in public service.

Duration

12 months (6 months theoretical training, 6 months practical on-the-job experience).
