Hello Everyone

Part if my portfolio is to consult to other training providers as a soft skills specialist.

I know its not a new problem, but just recently I had 2 Training Providers cancel training on me literally 1 working day before the workshops. The one had already scheduled dates with me and sent me all materials to prepare. I only had to sign the contract but queried a few points in the contract, One of which, was that I was supposed to facilitate and assess the POE's without been paid for assessments.

Hi Everyone

I was just wondering how are companies dealing with the pension reform on payroll.  I know that the software companies are or already have updated their payroll systems to take into account the changes in the legislation.  This only comes into effect on the 1 March 2016.

The company contribution to the pension fund is now added to your basic salary and deducted again as a tax deductible deduction. 

1.  This obviously has an effect on the pension calculation I would think?  A higher basic salary?

Good day, 

I wonder if any one could give light on this topic as I have searched endlessly for answers.

Is study assistance contracts legal? And if so/not, where in legislation is it stated? I have a client who needs to train some of his employees due to legal obligations. But in the past, once he has trained an employee, the employee leaves the company only a few days after due to getting a better opportunity as he/she is now qualified or has a certificate on their name. 

Good day

I just need to get some clarity on what the institute expects from a freelance Assessor Moderator.

What are the chargeable fees today for Assessment and on a Moderation?

What to charge not to seem cheap, but still comes forth as a professional service fee.

How do you approach the provider?What scares them off and what to avoid in email correspondence.

How do you ensure a good relationship for future considerations?

I note that a number of providers provide accredited soft skills training which consist of  unit standards ranging from 3 to 5. Most qualifications consist of 120 or 150 unit standards.

What is the purpose of offering this training? Is to solve performance problems or what?

Hi all. 

Can anyone assist please.  Im trying to find contact details of an ombudsman or a particular body where training providers can be reported for non payment. The particular provider seems to totally disregard the basic respect of paying for services rendered. I thought I was the only one until I was approached this morning by a fellow assessor for assistance with getting payment.
