RRP offers 7 weeks of training (5 weeks practical, 2 weeks theory) for an NQF Level 3 qualification.

YES provides 12 months of on-the-job training, requiring RRP completion, preparing participants for retail jobs or entrepreneurship.

These programmes address South Africa's 45.5% youth unemployment rate by equipping unemployed youth with retail skills, NQF Level 3 qualifications, and pathways to employment or business ownership, supporting economic transformation.

• Employers: Skilled youth for retail roles, supporting transformation goals.
• Community: Reduced unemployment, economic growth.
