The Project Management Unit (PMU) within the School of Occupation Training is extending an empowering opportunity to former students of King Sabata Dalindyebo (KSD) TVET College through its Graduate Placement Programme. This initiative is specifically tailored to recent graduates who hold qualifications in Public Management, Human Resources Management, or Financial Management, and aims to bridge the gap between academic achievement and real-world workplace experience.
Creating Pathways to Employment for TVET Graduates
South Africa’s youth unemployment rate remains a critical challenge, especially among graduates who, despite having formal qualifications, struggle to gain meaningful employment due to a lack of experience. The PMU’s Graduate Placement Programme seeks to address this challenge by offering former KSD TVET College learners a chance to apply their academic knowledge in practical environments while enhancing their employability.
By focusing on graduates with National Diplomas in Public Management, Human Resources Management, and Financial Management, the programme supports critical areas of public and private sector service delivery and administration—sectors that are integral to South Africa’s economic and governance systems.
