What is a Learnership?
It is a structured learning programme, which is a combination of theoretical knowledge where the earner is exposed to formal contact and simulated practical experiences together with work integrated learning in the workplace. It leads to a qualification registered on the National Qualifications Framework.
Learnerships create skills
Skilled people tend to work more independently, need less supervision and possess enhanced problem solving capabilities; are motivated and strive to add value to the business; are less likely to leave a company that takes an interest and invests in their personal and professional development.
