What to know locally in Ladysmith
Factories in Ezakheni and logistics firms on the N3 need forklift, safety and supervisor training, and many fall under merSETA or the Transport SETA. LGSETA matters for the municipality's staff programmes. NPOs and clinics look for learnerships for unemployed youth, and local schools send teachers on assessor courses. Skills development facilitators here often cover several small firms together.
Facilitation work in Ladysmith
Halfway between Durban and Johannesburg on the N3, Ladysmith is a natural stopover for groups from both cities. Factories in Ezakheni's industrial area, logistics firms on the corridor, the Alfred Duma municipality and the uThukela district offices all book local training and planning sessions. Schools, clinics and NPOs in Ezakheni and Steadville run community workshops and youth programmes in isiZulu. Many organisations from out of town hold a bosberaad in the Drakensberg resorts west of town, where conference hotels and lodges take groups for two or three days. Facilitators come from Pietermaritzburg, Durban or the Free State. Cold winters bring frost and occasional snow on Van Reenen's Pass, while summer brings heavy storms.
