Mthatha notes on training & skills development
Public sector clients here deal with PSETA, LGSETA and the ETDP SETA, and health workers often need short courses close to home. Learnerships for unemployed youth are in demand, and NPOs look for providers who can run them in rural areas. Teachers and lecturers sign up for assessor and moderator courses. Check that any provider has a current accreditation and scope.
Mthatha: the employers, the venues and the calendar
Mthatha is the main town of the old Transkei region and a centre for public services across a mostly rural area. The OR Tambo district and King Sabata Dalindyebo municipality offices, provincial departments, hospitals, a university and TVET colleges book planning sessions, staff development and leadership programmes. NPOs, traditional councils and community structures in the surrounding villages run imbizos and workshops, almost always in isiXhosa. Retailers and small businesses in the CBD need customer service and SDF support. Venues are mostly hotels and guest houses in town, with some lodges on the road to the Wild Coast. Many facilitators drive from East London or fly in to the local airport, so travel costs and dates need planning. Rural sessions may need generators and transport.
Typical leadership training requests in the area come from:
- Government departments and municipalities: supervisors and managers in departments and municipalities, often linked to performance plans
- NPOs, churches and community groups: NPO coordinators and volunteer leaders who manage teams on small budgets
- Schools, colleges and universities: heads of department and deputy principals learning to lead staff and run meetings
