21 SETAs in South Africa: Learnerships, Bursaries, Apprenticeships and Skills Programmes for 2026/2027
Written by Sifiso Mhlongo

 

If you are looking for a learnership, apprenticeship, bursary, skills programme, internship or workplace training opportunity in South Africa for 2026 or 2027, one of the most important places to understand is the country’s SETA system.

South Africa has 21 Sector Education and Training Authorities (SETAs) covering industries ranging from agriculture, banking and construction to information technology, mining, healthcare, government, transport and retail.

For unemployed young people, matriculants, TVET College students, graduates, employees and aspiring artisans, SETAs can open pathways into funded training, recognised qualifications and workplace experience.

The challenge is knowing which SETA covers your career field and which programme is appropriate for you.

Edupstairs has therefore developed the Edupstairs SETA Platform, bringing the 21 SETAs and more than 1,000 programme records together in one searchable platform.

Instead of trying to understand the SETA system one website at a time, users can explore SETAs, programmes, qualifications, career fields and NQF levels from one place.

This guide explains all 21 SETAs in South Africa and the learnerships, bursaries, apprenticeships, skills programmes and other opportunities you should know about for 2026/2027.

Quick Overview: What Are SETAs?

SETA stands for Sector Education and Training Authority.

Each SETA is responsible for supporting skills development within particular sectors of the South African economy.

This means the SETA that is relevant to you depends largely on the industry or career you want to enter.

For example:

  • Someone interested in farming or agricultural production should investigate AgriSETA.
  • Someone interested in IT, telecommunications or digital careers should explore MICT SETA.
  • An aspiring electrician or engineering artisan may find opportunities through merSETA, EWSETA or other relevant SETAs.
  • Someone pursuing mining careers should explore the MQA.
  • Prospective healthcare and social-development workers should understand HWSETA.
  • People interested in municipal careers should explore LGSETA.
  • Retail and wholesale career pathways fall primarily under W&RSETA.

This sector-based system is why simply searching for “SETA learnerships” is often not enough.

A better strategy is to identify your career field first, determine which SETA covers it, and then investigate that SETA’s programmes.

You can start by browsing the Edupstairs SETA Platform.

What Opportunities Can SETAs Provide?

SETAs are not limited to learnerships.

Depending on the sector, funding window, employer and programme, opportunities can include:

Learnerships

A learnership normally combines structured learning with workplace experience and is linked to a registered qualification or occupational pathway.

Applicants can explore the dedicated SETA Learnerships directory on Edupstairs.

This is particularly useful for matriculants, unemployed youth and people seeking a recognised qualification while gaining practical workplace exposure.

Apprenticeships

Apprenticeships are especially important for people pursuing artisan and trade careers.

They combine institutional or theoretical training with substantial workplace experience and can lead towards trade testing and artisan recognition.

Explore the SETA Apprenticeships directory.

Potential pathways can include trades connected to electrical work, mechanical engineering, fitting, welding, construction, manufacturing, mining and other technical occupations.

Bursaries

Several SETAs support students financially in fields that are important to their sectors.

Funding criteria differ considerably between SETAs and funding windows, so applicants should never assume that a bursary is automatically available simply because a qualification falls within a SETA’s sector.

Use the SETA Bursaries and Funding directory to explore available pathways.

Skills Programmes

Skills programmes are generally shorter and more focused than full qualifications.

They can help participants acquire specific occupational or workplace competencies.

Explore SETA Skills Programmes.

Work Integrated Learning

TVET College, university and university-of-technology students may also encounter SETA-funded or SETA-supported workplace opportunities.

This is particularly important for students who need practical experience to complete their qualifications.

Students can explore SETA Work Integrated Learning programmes.

Start with your career goal.

For example:

Career Interest SETA to Explore
Agriculture and farming AgriSETA
Banking BANKSETA
Tourism and hospitality CATHSSETA
Construction CETA
Chemical and petroleum industries CHIETA

Government/public administration PSETA
Policing, security and justice SASSETA
Business and service industries Services SETA
Transport and logistics TETA
Wholesale and retail W&RSETA

If you are still unsure, use the Edupstairs SETA Programme Eligibility Checker. It asks questions about your education, circumstances and goals to help identify potentially relevant SETAs and programme pathways.

Matric Only? SETA Learnerships Could Be Worth Exploring

You do not necessarily need a university degree to benefit from the SETA system.

Many learnership and occupational-training opportunities target applicants with Grade 12/Matric, while some programmes may accept applicants at different educational levels.

For example, Edupstairs’ programme catalogue includes pathways at several NQF levels.

However, applicants must read each advertisement carefully.

A particular opportunity may require:

  • Grade 10, 11 or 12
  • Matric
  • Mathematics
  • Mathematical Literacy
  • Physical Sciences
  • Particular TVET subjects
  • N4, N5 or N6
  • A diploma
  • A degree
  • A specific NQF level
  • Relevant work experience
  • A driver’s licence
  • Residence in a particular province or municipality

Never assume that the general requirements of a SETA apply to every programme funded by that SETA.

TVET College Students: Pay Special Attention to SETAs

If you are studying at a TVET College, understanding the SETA connected to your programme can be extremely valuable.

SETA-linked opportunities may provide access to:

  • Apprenticeships
  • Artisan development
  • Work Integrated Learning
  • Workplace placement
  • Internships
  • Skills programmes
  • Learnerships

This is particularly important for NATED students who require workplace experience.

Students can also use the Edupstairs TVET Colleges Explorer to investigate South Africa’s public TVET Colleges, programmes and related student information.

Understand NQF Levels Before Applying

Applicants regularly encounter terms such as:

NQF Level 2, NQF Level 4, NQF Level 5 and NQF Level 6.

Do not ignore these numbers.

The NQF level helps indicate the level at which a qualification is registered on South Africa’s National Qualifications Framework.

Use the Edupstairs NQF Levels Explained guide before applying if you are unsure how NQF levels work.

You can also use the Edupstairs Career and Qualification Explorer when researching qualifications and potential career pathways.

Are SETA Learnerships Paid?

Some funded workplace programmes provide participants with a stipend or allowance, but there is no single amount that applies to every SETA opportunity.

The amount can depend on factors including the programme, funding arrangement, qualification, employer and applicable rules.

Therefore, applicants should not trust social-media posts claiming that “all SETA learnerships pay R5,000” or any other universal amount.

Always check the actual advertisement or funding terms.

The same principle applies to bursaries: the expenses covered can differ significantly from one funding programme to another.

How to Apply for SETA Opportunities in 2026/2027

There is no single universal application form for every SETA programme in South Africa.

Depending on the opportunity, applications may be handled by:

  • The SETA
  • An employer
  • An accredited training provider
  • A TVET College
  • A university
  • A municipality
  • A government department
  • An industry partner
  • Another implementing organisation

Before submitting anything, read the Edupstairs SETA Application Guide.

A sensible application process is:

  1. Identify the sector you want to enter.
  2. Find the SETA responsible for that sector.
  3. Research the programme pathway.
  4. Check whether applications are currently open.
  5. Read the official eligibility criteria.
  6. Prepare all required documents.
  7. Apply through the method stated in the official advertisement.
  8. Keep proof of your application where possible.
  9. Continue searching for other opportunities rather than relying on one application.

Documents You Should Start Preparing for 2027 Opportunities

Do not wait for a major learnership advertisement before preparing your documents.

Depending on the programme, applicants may be asked for:

  • Updated CV
  • Certified or uncertified ID copy, depending on instructions
  • Matric certificate
  • Academic record
  • TVET College certificates
  • N4, N5 or N6 results
  • Diploma or degree certificate
  • Proof of residence
  • Driver’s licence where required
  • Supporting disability documentation where specifically required
  • Motivation letter where requested

Keep electronic copies that are clear and easy to upload.

Important: A SETA Programme Listing Does Not Mean Applications Are Currently Open

This distinction is critical.

The Edupstairs SETA Platform contains information about programme and qualification pathways associated with the different SETAs.

A programme appearing in the catalogue does not automatically mean there is an active 2026/2027 intake.

Funding windows, employer recruitment campaigns and training-provider intakes open and close at different times.

Always verify:

Is there an active intake?

Who is recruiting?

What is the closing date?

What are the requirements?

Where must the application be submitted?

This can prevent applicants from confusing general programme information with an active vacancy or funded training opportunity.

Why Use the Edupstairs SETA Platform?

Information about South Africa’s skills-development system is often spread across multiple SETA websites, qualification documents, employer advertisements and training-provider pages.

The Edupstairs SETA Platform has been designed to make this easier to navigate.

The platform brings together:

  • All 21 South African SETAs
  • More than 1,000 programme records
  • SETA-specific programme hubs
  • Learnership pathways
  • Apprenticeships
  • Bursaries and funding
  • Skills programmes
  • Internships
  • Work Integrated Learning
  • Qualification information
  • NQF-level information
  • Career-field searches
  • Personalised programme guidance

Users can search according to a SETA, programme, qualification, career field or NQF level.

This makes the platform useful not only when an opportunity is open, but also when you are planning what to pursue next.

Edupstairs Advice for 2026/2027 Applicants

One of the biggest mistakes applicants make is searching only for the word “learnership.”

Search according to your career objective instead.

If you want to become an electrician, investigate electrical qualifications, apprenticeships, artisan development, TVET programmes and the relevant SETAs.

If you want to work in cybersecurity, investigate MICT SETA, digital skills programmes, IT qualifications and employers offering workplace programmes.

If you want to work in mining, investigate MQA as well as mining companies offering bursaries, learnerships, internships and apprenticeships.

If you want municipal employment, understand LGSETA and the skills municipalities need.

Your goal should not simply be to “get a learnership.”

Your goal should be to build a career pathway.

Start that research through the Edupstairs SETA Platform and then follow active opportunities that fit the pathway you have chosen.
