Pietermaritzburg notes on training & skills development
PSETA matters for provincial departments and the ETDP SETA for the many schools and colleges here. Teachers and lecturers often sign up for assessor and moderator courses, so ask whether a course is still registered and which body certifies it. Public sector leadership and soft skills programmes are common, and NPOs in Edendale and Imbali look for learnerships with stipends for unemployed youth.
Pietermaritzburg: the employers, the venues and the calendar
As the seat of the KwaZulu-Natal legislature and many provincial departments, Pietermaritzburg books a lot of public sector facilitation. Annual performance planning sessions, departmental lekgotla and leadership programmes run from October into the new year, often at a Midlands lodge in Hilton or Howick rather than in town. The city is also a schools and education town, with well-known independent and public schools, a university campus in Scottsville and TVET colleges that book staff development days and assessor training. NPOs in Edendale and Imbali run community workshops in isiZulu. The Msunduzi municipality adds imbizos. Facilitators come from the city itself or drive up the N3 from Durban in under an hour and a half. Cold, misty winter mornings in the Midlands matter for outdoor plans.
Typical learnership providers requests in the area come from:
- Government departments and municipalities: municipal and departmental programmes for unemployed youth, often with LGSETA or PSETA
- Schools, colleges and universities: colleges hosting learners, and schools employing young people as admin learners
- NPOs, churches and community groups: NPOs placing unemployed youth in learnerships with employer partners
