How difficult is it to access training (Internship, Learnership or Apprenticeship) opportunities in workplace?

06/05/2021

Community Colleges in South Africa are known as Community Education and Training Colleges (CETCs). These colleges do not only provide learning opportunities for those who have left school but also provide an education to those people whose learning was negatively impacted by past and current social inequalities and poverty. The target group includes unemployed people, people who have lost their job and those who don't have skills that are in demand in the labour market. The skills that people develop from the programmes in these colleges help them to become more employable and helps them to create their own employment so that they can better their socio-economic positions in life

Why you want to do one
The benefits of either of these programmes are that you will be gaining experience for the job you’re working towards in the specific industry you’re wanting to go into. University may be able to help you reach towards your dream job one day, but it’s the actual experience in the positions and industry that will get you there. Which is exactly what these programmes are offering.

Yes, it may take you an extra year to start working and earning a proper salary, but going through the process of either a learnership, apprenticeship or internship will definitely be worth it and recognised by whoever employs you.

Internships
And then we have the internship. Internships are relatively common when searching for entry-level jobs online and are popular options for graduates straight out of university. Sometimes, in order to complete your qualification, universities require students to complete an internship at a pre-selected company. The idea behind an internship is to allow inexperienced graduates to gain experience in the hope that they will pursue that career and use the experience to get a permanent job (sometimes within the same company that the internship was offered in).

There are both paid and unpaid internships and the duration can range between anything from a few weeks to 12 months. As there are, generally, a variety of internships available, which means graduates are likely to find an internship in an industry and job-position suited to their studies.

After university, you may not have a clear idea of what you want to do exactly. And that’s another area where internships can help you. Spending a few months after studying, doing a variety of internships in different positions and various industries will give you valuable experience that will help you decide what it is you like doing and what you don’t. Then when it comes to deciding on a career, you’ll have your internship experience to guide you in the right direction.
