Welkom notes on venues, equipment & supplies
Conference rooms in town, Riebeeckstad and a few lodges near the pans host most day sessions. Ask about generators and parking for buses from the shafts. Basic AV and flip charts can be hired locally, while larger PA and printing jobs may come from Bloemfontein. Buy workshop supplies before the session, as the choice in town can be limited.
Welkom: the employers, the venues and the calendar
Welkom was built as the centre of the Free State goldfields, and deep-level gold mining around Virginia, Odendaalsrus and Allanridge still drives much of the training here. Safety induction, underground supervisor courses, reskilling for workers affected by closures and community development sessions are the most common requests. Agriculture on the surrounding farms and the municipality add their own planning and training work. Venues are mainly guest houses, conference rooms in town and in Riebeeckstad, and a few lodges near the pans and dams outside town. Community programmes in Thabong run mostly in Sesotho. Most outside facilitators drive from Bloemfontein, about two hours, or from Johannesburg on the N1.
Who asks for workshop supplies around Welkom, most often first:
- Mines, plants, factories and farms: kits for supervisor training and problem-solving sessions on site
- NPOs, churches and community groups: low-cost supplies for NPO planning days and community workshops
