Learner Sourcing and Placement
At the end of the Learnership, Skills Development Corporation strives to assist companies with absorbing their learners into sustainable and suitable positions or finding opportunities to place them at one of our Placement Partners. It is paramount to this service that our learners achieve full-time employment.
Placement Partners
Work-integrated learning is vital for completing any learnership. For this reason, we partner with businesses referred to as Placement Partners, who can offer practical work experience to enrolled learners as temporary staff.
Participating as a Placement Partner provides invaluable hands-on experience to current learners enrolled in learnerships and contributes to your community’s empowerment and upliftment. And the best part? As a Placement Partner, you can reap the benefit of extra hands on deck without adding the temporary staff to your payroll.
