Don't Hesitate To Ask Us

If you’re not sure which programme is right for your mine, community, or training centre, our team is here to help. Send us a message or browse the questions below for quick answers about our mining, portable skills, and ETDP training services.

How long are your portable skills programmes?

Most programmes run from 2 to 10 days, depending on the skill area and depth required. For large projects, we can combine multiple courses into a multi‑week programme.

What education level do participants need?

Our portable skills courses are designed for people with mixed education levels. We use simple language, demonstrations and practice, and we can support groups with limited literacy or schooling.

Can you train in our community or at our project site?

Yes. We are a mobile training provider and regularly deliver training in community halls, schools, municipal facilities and on client sites nationwide.

Do participants receive certificates?

Yes. Participants who meet the requirements receive a certificate of attendance or competence. For accredited programmes, we also follow the relevant SETA / QCTO processes.
