Hannes, firstly your question is one that is long overdue and possibly a lot more complex than meets the eye. The term you have used, vocational learning practitioner, is important to note.

Thanks so much for the comment Kate. I use a few targeted pages, but essentially I posted on our business Facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/kvrqhubeka) and several of the learership groups on Facebook as well as with specific friends of mine who have access to or contact with potential learners. I also posted on Skills Universe and on Careers…[Read more]

What a phenomenal response to our advertisement that we posted for an upcoming learnership. In less than 24 hours we have had close on 300 applications!. KVRQhubeka is going to do what it can to have as many of these your people placed in learnerships, internships or full employment.

Hi Charles,

Both sides seem to be abused and have a chance as the abuser, particularly when there are very few moderators or assessors for a particular unit standard or qualification. We experienced this recently, when an individual, who I shall not name, knew that we are applying for accreditation in a particular qualification where there are…[Read more]

I hear what you are saying Ken and would like to reserve all my comments until I can fully understand what you are proposing as an alternative. would you be so kind as to do so. Thanks.
