"SASSETA’s role in accordance with the Skills Development Act"

Alongside the framework stipulated by the Skills Development Act, we aim to operate even more efficiently in a way that delivers on our mandate. This means that we remain dedicated to the following areas:

This plan will be implemented by approving and monitoring skills plans in the workplace, establishing learnerships, allocating necessary grants and monitoring training and education within our sector.

We believe in improving and supporting learning through the proper management and development of learning methodologies and materials. Through the proper registration and monitoring of learnership agreements, we can empower people with the skills that they need to change their lives.

This includes the likes of national skills strategy, skills development policy and its own sector skills plan. Through this, we can play an active role in driving the quality of skills development in South Africa.

Through this, we can help ensure that more learners get access to the vital skills that drive career growth and uplift communities.

Our relationships with these entities enable us to improve the standard of communication about employment opportunities between education providers and the labour market.

Through active collaboration with such departments, we can address the competency requirements for social delivery as well as the learning needs of those within the sector who are most vulnerable. We also promote training in SMEs so that they may qualify for public contracts. This includes all other duties imposed by the Act or functions that allow us to fulfil SASSETA objectives.
