PSiRA is a South African statutory body responsible for regulating the private security industry. Its regulatory work covers registration, law-enforcement support, compliance, information and administrative services. The YES placements are designed to give eligible young people workplace experience across supporting departments; they are not the same as a permanent appointment as a security officer or regulator.
The 2027/2028 programme is described as a 12-month workplace-experience initiative. The employer determines assignments, supervision, selection and any further screening conditions. A YES placement should not be mistaken for guaranteed permanent employment, a funded academic qualification or an invitation to join private security work without meeting separate statutory requirements.

Which monthly stipend does the 2027/2028 listing give for NQF Level 6?
| Qualification NQF level | Advertised monthly amount | Illustrative 12-month arithmetic* |
|---|---|---|
| NQF Level 6 | R5,300 | R63,600 |
| NQF Level 7 | R6,000 | R72,000 |
| NQF Level 8 | R7,000 | R84,000 |
*The final column simply multiplies the advertised monthly rate by 12. It is not an employer guarantee of 12 payments, an indication of take-home pay, or evidence of taxes and deductions. The stipend level depends on the qualification category accepted by PSiRA. The previous PSiRA 2026/2027 Edupstairs article reported R5,000 for NQF 6; this newer 2027/2028 intake reports R5,300. Do not reuse the older amount.

Does a qualification unrelated to an advertised stream automatically qualify you?
Each of the 24 positions calls for the specific listed National Diploma, Degree or professional field of study; some say “or equivalent”. The detailed employer listing should control whether a qualification is considered equivalent. A general diploma in an unrelated subject is not automatically eligible. The current third-party programme summary describes the candidates as unemployed South African youth aged 18–35; because PSiRA’s individual job screens were not independently readable in this research session, confirm the age, citizenship, prior YES participation and any other screening questions on the live employer form before applying.
Job-specific advertised disciplines include business administration, public administration, office management, security management, social science research, archival science, occupational health and safety, accounting, information technology, human resources, law, supply chain, policing and media studies. Previous PSIRA programmes may have had different requirements and deadlines; avoid treating the old intake as current.

How many provinces are identifiable in the current 24-entry register?
Only six provinces appear in the 24 current entries. “Nationwide” describes recruitment across multiple provinces, not confirmation of a vacancy in all nine South African provinces. If you live in Limpopo, Northern Cape or North West, PSiRA has not been independently verified to be offering a current local placement in this batch; you may still research whether you can apply for an advertised location, subject to employer rules.

What do the 24 published Apply links currently lead to?
Application-link verification: The 11 November 2026 vacancy register contains 24 “CLICK TO APPLY” actions, but each opens the main PSiRA recruitment browser, not an individual job detail page. The application service itself did not return accessible individual vacancy IDs through the research browser. PSiRA’s official social-channel announcement also points users to the central recruitment portal. For editorial integrity, Edupstairs provides 24 correctly labelled browser-entry links and does not manufacture deep links or invented reference numbers.
Go to the official PSiRA recruitment job browser. If the portal displays search and filters, use the exact programme title and advertised town. If an entry is not visible, it may have closed, been withdrawn or moved; do not use old or third-party upload forms to send personal documents.

Tick steps for your own planning. This does not submit an application.
Which is the safer order before you submit?
- Open the official PSiRA eRecruitment vacancies page.
- Search or browse the YES Programme 2027/2028 listings. Identify a role that matches your completed qualification.
- Select the correct programme title and province/city; Training Pretoria and Training Centurion, for example, are different entries.
- Read the complete official listing, including citizenship, age, unemployment status, any prior-programme restrictions, qualifications, documents and closing information.
- Register or sign in if the employer portal requires an account. Never share your password or one-time PIN with a supposed recruiter.
- Complete all employer-required fields truthfully and attach only documents specified by the portal.
- Review that the selected role and location are correct, then submit through the official system before 17 November 2026.
- Save the employer’s confirmation or application reference where the system provides one. An Edupstairs article or CV generator cannot submit the application for you.

Is a Z83 form verified as compulsory for all 24 PSiRA YES vacancies?
Prepare a current, accurate CV; an ID copy; evidence of qualifications; transcripts or other academic evidence where requested; and a concise summary of relevant projects. Current third-party guidance describes certified qualification and ID copies, but applicants must confirm the exact document list, upload formats and certification age on the current PSiRA job screen. A Z83 is not established as required for this PSiRA online YES application.
Applicants with foreign qualifications may be asked for SAQA evaluation or other verification, but that cannot be assumed for all 24 posts without reading each portal instruction. Do not email identity documents to anyone claiming to operate “on behalf of PSiRA” unless the employer itself expressly confirms that submission route.

Which CV approach is appropriate when you lack job experience?
Prepare a truthful YES motivation draft
Enter only true information. Your answers remain in this page and are not sent to Edupstairs; nothing is saved. Review the wording before using it.
Your draft to review and personalise
A convincing YES CV does not require fabricated employment. Instead, use the qualification named in the specific vacancy, academic projects, practical assignments, workplace-exposure modules, computer skills and clear contact information. For Records Management, describe real information-organisation coursework. For IT, explain systems projects you actually completed. For Training, state genuine facilitation or administration experience, including school-based practice when relevant.
Use the Edupstairs ATS CV & Career Assistant to structure your CV; research the position with the Career & Qualification Explorer and the National Skills Intelligence Explorer. These are independent preparation tools, not a PSiRA endorsement or application prerequisite.

Applicants who are not yet academically qualified can use Edupstairs to plan further study. A TVET qualification is not automatically equivalent to the diploma or degree specified in a YES advert; applicants should confirm their particular NQF level and the employer’s rules. Use career discovery and occupation data to choose training that supports your long-term interests.

- TVET College Explorer — Review 50 public colleges, courses and qualifications.
- Career & Qualification Explorer — Search OFO occupations and SAQA qualifications linked to public administration, ICT, finance, compliance and more.
- Career Discovery — Investigate personal career interests and possible pathways.

Can you assume every related programme is currently open?
The following are alternative opportunities or related guides published on Edupstairs. They have different eligibility rules, recruitment periods and employers; their inclusion does not mean they are open on the date you read this PSiRA guide.

- Arjo YES Programme 2026/2027 — YES placements spanning administrative, technical and operational functions.
- Dunlop Tyres YES Youth Programme 2026 — Various graduate disciplines in Durban and Ladysmith; distinct employer.
- BMW Group SA YES4Youth Student Programme 2027 — Multi-field YES placements; different screening conditions.
- DHL YES4Youth Learnership X50 — Logistics work experience; check its own rules and status.

Readers should also distinguish this 2027/2028 programme from the earlier PSiRA YES Programme 2026/2027 article. The older guide has a different deadline and a different NQF 6 stipend and is not a current application page.

What is the safest way to describe a skill?
Before an interview, think of one true example showing accuracy, teamwork, responsibility and initiative. If you are applying for IT, be ready to explain a problem you solved through coursework. If you studied accounting, describe how you verified figures. For legal or law-enforcement-related roles, focus on ethics and the difference between an administrative function and exercising powers that require legal authority.
A good interview answer names the situation, your task, what you personally did, and the result. Never claim confidential access, a professional licence or practical experience you do not possess. Read the employer’s latest responsibilities before an interview rather than relying solely on generic online role descriptions.

How many PSiRA YES opportunities are advertised?
The public vacancy register contains 24 separate programme/location listings. It does not identify how many people will be selected in each one.
Does 24 listings mean exactly 24 vacancies?
No. A listing is not automatically the same as a single funded placement. The total number of positions has not been established from the accessible source.
When do applications close?
The listed deadline is 17 November 2026. No exact closing time has been verified; apply early and confirm the employer’s portal.
What is the monthly stipend?
The listed amounts are R5,300 at NQF 6, R6,000 at NQF 7 and R7,000 at NQF 8.
Is this the same programme as PSiRA YES 2026/2027?
No. The current listings are labelled 2027/2028. An earlier Edupstairs article concerns the previous intake with a different application deadline and stipend information.
How long is the placement?
The advertised YES programme lasts 12 months. Its exact start date has not been verified here.
Is Matric alone sufficient?
The 24 listings generally require the relevant National Diploma, Degree or specified qualification. Matric alone is not listed as sufficient for these 24 entries.
Can I apply with an NQF Level 6 diploma?
Possibly, for streams that accept the named National Diploma or equivalent. Your field must match the individual listing and PSIRA determines equivalence.
What if I hold an LLB?
The Legal Administration listing in Centurion names an LLB degree or equivalent. Read the full employer conditions.
What if my qualification is in Computer Science?
The Business Information Technology listing in Centurion names Computer Science, Information Technology and Information Systems among eligible disciplines.
Where are the Registration opportunities?
The six listed places are Gqeberha, Mthatha, Bellville, Mbombela, Bloemfontein and Durban.
Where are the Training opportunities?
Centurion, Pretoria, Mbombela, Bloemfontein and Gqeberha are separately advertised.
Does every South African province have a PSiRA YES post?
No. Six provinces are identifiable in the published register. Listings in Limpopo, North West and Northern Cape have not been verified for this intake.
Can I apply for a placement outside my province?
The extracted listing does not establish a universal relocation or residence rule. Ask PSiRA or check the selected employer advert.
Are the 24 application URLs all different?
No unique vacancy-specific deep links could be verified. The available apply actions all lead to the official PSiRA recruitment job browser.
Where is the official application website?
Use https://erecruitment.psira.co.za/recruitment/#/browse-jobs and select the advertised role and location.
What if the employer portal does not show the vacancy?
Recheck the closing date, filters and current status. Do not guess a direct URL or send documents to an unofficial third-party address.
Can a candidate with no prior work experience apply?
The programme targets youth seeking work experience, but any prior experience criteria and screening rules must be checked in the specific employer listing.
Is the applicant age range 18–35?
A contemporary secondary programme summary reports ages 18–35. The exact employer job screen could not be independently read; confirm it before relying on the criterion.
Are people with disabilities encouraged to apply?
Contemporary recruitment coverage reports encouragement of candidates with disabilities. Confirm accommodation and document requirements directly with the employer.
Is a Z83 compulsory?
The current extracted YES listings describe an online employer recruitment portal and do not establish a Z83 requirement. Follow the live portal document list.
Should I pay an application fee?
No recruitment fee is identified. Do not pay individuals who claim they can guarantee selection; report suspicious requests to official PSiRA channels.
Will PSiRA employ me permanently after 12 months?
The 12-month YES programme is a workplace-experience contract, and permanent appointment is not promised.
Where can I find other learnerships?
Use the Edupstairs related learnership articles and SETA platform. Check eligibility and dates independently for each programme.

Begin with the discipline stated on your certificate. If the employer’s field differs materially, don’t rely on the broad phrase “equivalent qualification” without checking. Next, check the precise town and province. Only then prepare the CV, documents and any registration details. This order avoids spending time on a post that is not for your qualification or preferred placement area.
Do not send a generic application to every listing. If the portal allows multiple applications, comply with its specific rules and tailor each truthful motivation. Keep screenshots or confirmation emails issued by the employer as proof of submission; Edupstairs cannot track or lodge your applications.

Edupstairs is an independent South African education and employment information publisher. It is not PSiRA, does not recruit or shortlist candidates for PSiRA, and cannot guarantee a placement, monthly stipend, qualification recognition or a job after the YES contract.

The 24 role/location combinations, advertised qualifications, 12-month duration, NQF-linked stipends and closing date are drawn from a current third-party reproduction of the recruitment register and corroborating contemporary programme reporting. The official PSiRA social announcement supports the programme, official recruitment portal and closing date. Suggested transferable skills, CV examples, interview ideas and Edupstairs internal tools are separate editorial guidance, not employer-imposed requirements. PSiRA’s own portal is the definitive authority for current vacancy availability and complete application conditions.
