Durban notes on training & skills development
The port and the logistics corridor along the N3 make transport and freight training a big part of the work, so Transport SETA grants and learnerships come up often. Manufacturers in the south basin around Jacobs and Mobeni need supervisor and safety programmes. The metro and the provincial offices in the CBD book leadership and soft skills courses, and private training providers in Westville and the Berea run facilitator and assessor courses for groups.
Durban: the employers, the venues and the calendar
Shipping, logistics and a large metro government shape much of the facilitation booked in Durban. Freight forwarders, clearing agents and port operators near the harbour run safety and supervisor training, while regional head offices on Umhlanga Ridge and in the La Lucia office parks book strategy days, leadership cohorts and year-end functions with an MC. The eThekwini municipality, hospitals and the TVET colleges bring imbizos, induction and learnerships. Conferences fill the beachfront hotels and the convention precinct near the CBD for much of the year. Facilitators work in isiZulu and English, and many delegates fly in to the airport at La Mercy. Hot, humid summer afternoons and storms argue for indoor plans, and holiday season in December and July fills beach venues fast.
The requests we see from Durban usually come from:
- Companies and head offices: in-house academy staff trained to assess and moderate the company's accredited programmes
- Government departments and municipalities: departmental and municipal training units that assess officials on skills programmes
- Mines, plants, factories and farms: artisans and supervisors assessing apprentices and learnership candidates on site
Local tips for Durban
Booked most in Durban: port and logistics training, strategy days on Umhlanga Ridge, conferences, imbizos. Where providers and venues are: umhlanga Ridge, La Lucia, the Berea, Westville office parks and the beachfront hotels. A useful tip: ask whether the venue's backup power runs the air conditioning as well as the AV.
Around Durban the largest group asking is companies and head offices, which usually means in-house academy staff trained to assess and moderate the company's accredited programmes. Before you agree to anything: assessor (NQF 5) before moderator (NQF 6). Getting there: short drives across the metro; delegates from upcountry fly in to the north coast airport.
