Implementing learnerships involves collaboration between various stakeholders, including government bodies, SETAs, training providers, and employers. The process typically involves the following steps:

  1. Needs Analysis: Identifying skills gaps and industry needs to develop relevant learnership programs.
  2. Accreditation: Ensuring training providers and programs meet the required standards and are accredited by the relevant authorities.
  3. Recruitment: Selecting suitable candidates who meet the entry requirements for the learnership.
  4. Training and Mentorship: Providing theoretical and practical training, along with mentorship and support throughout the learnership.
  5. Assessment and Certification: Evaluating learners' performance and issuing nationally recognized qualifications upon successful completion.

  • Quality Assurance: Ensuring consistent quality in training and assessment across different providers and employers.
  • Awareness and Accessibility: Raising awareness about learnership opportunities and making them accessible to a broader range of individuals, especially in rural areas.
