Upington notes on training & skills development
AgriSETA matters for the farms, the EWSETA for the solar plants, and LGSETA and PSETA for government. Renewable energy operations and maintenance training, farm supervisor courses and community skills programmes funded by the projects are common. Learnerships for local youth are often tied to project commitments, so ask a provider how it tracks attendance and reports to the funder.
Facilitators and providers in Upington
Upington is the service town for the Green Kalahari. Irrigated vineyards, table grapes and dried fruit farms line the Orange River, and several large solar power plants in the district have brought construction, operations and community development work. Typical bookings are farm worker and supervisor training, community trust and stakeholder meetings for the solar projects, municipal strategy sessions and school staff development. Venues are guest houses and lodges along the river, with conference rooms in town and on farms at Kanoneiland and Kakamas. Distances are long: many facilitators fly into the airport from Johannesburg or Cape Town. Summer heat regularly exceeds what outdoor activities can handle, so plan early mornings.
The requests we see from Upington usually come from:
- 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
- Mines, plants, factories and farms: shift supervisors and foremen on mines and plants, trained on site around shifts
