Tshwane South TVET College has announced 53 Work Integrated Learning (WIL) opportunities for Clothing Production N6 learners in partnership with the Fibre Processing and Manufacturing Sector Education and Training Authority (FP&M SETA).
For Clothing Production students who have completed the theoretical component of their studies but still need workplace exposure, this opportunity could provide an important bridge between college and the working world.
The official advert specifically targets Tshwane South TVET College learners aged 18 to 35 who have completed Clothing Production N6 and are willing to be placed at a workplace identified by the College.
Applications close on 20 August 2026, so eligible students should prepare and submit their applications as soon as possible rather than waiting until the closing date.

Official Requirements
Applicants must:
- Have Clothing Production N6
- Be a Tshwane South TVET College learner
- Be between 18 and 35 years old
- Be willing to be placed at a workplace identified by the College
The advert also contains an important instruction concerning CVs.
It states:
“We do not accept CV generated from the APPs, only Curriculum Vitae as per the high school curriculum will be accepted.”
Applicants should take this instruction seriously.
What does the CV instruction mean for applicants?
The wording used in the official advert is unusual and does not provide a sample CV or detailed template.
Edupstairs therefore recommends following the instruction conservatively: prepare a straightforward, manually compiled CV rather than submitting a CV automatically generated by a CV application.
If you are uncertain about the exact format the College expects, contact the programme enquiry person before the closing date rather than guessing.
The official enquiry details are:
Lucy Lekganyane
Telephone: 012 401 5045
Who Should Apply?
This opportunity is highly targeted.
You should consider applying if you:
- Studied Clothing Production at Tshwane South TVET College
- Have completed the required N6 level
- Fall within the advertised age range of 18–35
- Need relevant workplace exposure
- Are prepared to accept placement at a workplace identified by the College
- Can comply with the College’s application and CV instructions
An important point is that this is not advertised as a national opportunity open to every Clothing Production N6 graduate in South Africa.
The advert explicitly says: “Only Tshwane South TVET College learners.”
Students from other TVET Colleges should therefore not assume that they qualify for these 53 positions.
What Is Work Integrated Learning?
Work Integrated Learning connects academic or vocational learning with practical experience in a workplace.
Instead of learning exclusively in a classroom, students have an opportunity to experience how organisations operate in practice.
Depending on the workplace and role, workplace learning can help participants develop areas such as:
- Professional communication
- Time management
- Workplace discipline
- Teamwork
- Following instructions
- Problem-solving
- Understanding production processes
- Quality awareness
- Workplace safety awareness
- Professional conduct
These are examples of the types of transferable workplace capabilities WIL can develop. They should not be interpreted as a list of duties promised by this particular Tshwane South TVET College programme.
The official advertisement does not provide detailed job descriptions for the 53 placements.
How to Apply
According to the official advert, applications must be emailed to: digitalskills@tsc.edu.za

The closing date is: 20 August 2026
Applicants should submit their applications before the deadline.
Edupstairs Application Guidance
The advert provides the email address and CV instruction but does not provide a complete list of required supporting documents.
Applicants should therefore avoid assuming that documents such as certified ID copies, certificates or proof of address are compulsory unless the College has separately instructed them to provide those documents.
A sensible approach is to confirm the required documents with the College if you are uncertain.
When emailing your application, use a clear subject line that identifies the programme. For example: Application: Clothing Production N6 Work Integrated Learning 2026
Make sure your CV clearly includes:
- Full name
- Contact number
- Email address
- Education history
- Tshwane South TVET College details
- Clothing Production N6 qualification information
- Relevant skills
- Any relevant practical exposure, projects or experience, if applicable
Do not claim experience you do not have.
WIL programmes exist precisely because students often need workplace experience. A truthful, well-organised CV is more useful than trying to make yourself appear more experienced than you actually are.
Before Sending Your Application
Check your application carefully.
Make sure:
- Your name is spelled correctly
- Your telephone number works
- Your email address is correct
- Your qualification is clearly stated
- Your CV opens correctly
- Your attachment has a professional filename
- You have followed the special CV instruction in the advert
- You are applying to the correct email address
- You submit before 20 August 2026
A useful filename would be something like: Name-Surname-Clothing-Production-WIL-CV.pdf
Avoid filenames such as: cvnewfinal2.pdf or: document123.pdf
A professional filename makes your application easier to identify and manage.
Common Application Mistakes to Avoid
-
Applying when you are not a Tshwane South TVET College learner
The advert specifically limits applications to Tshwane South TVET College learners.
-
Ignoring the age requirement
Applicants must be between 18 and 35 years old according to the advert.
-
Sending an app-generated CV
This is specifically addressed in the advertisement. Follow the College’s CV instruction.
-
Assuming you can choose your employer
The advert says applicants must be willing to be placed at a workplace identified by the College.
That means applicants should be prepared for the College to determine the placement.
-
Waiting until the closing date
Email problems, attachment errors and connectivity issues can happen. Submit early where possible.
-
Sending an incomplete or unreadable CV
Open the document yourself before sending it. Check that all pages display correctly.
-
Inventing work experience
Students sometimes believe that having no formal work experience makes their CV weak. For a workplace learning opportunity, honesty is essential. Highlight your education, projects, practical learning and relevant skills instead.
-
Assuming there is a guaranteed stipend
The supplied advert does not state a stipend amount.
Edupstairs will therefore not publish or estimate a stipend for this opportunity without official confirmation.
What the Advert Does Not Specify
Applicants often need information beyond what appears on a recruitment poster.
For transparency, the supplied official advert does not specify:
- The stipend amount
- Whether a stipend will be paid
- The exact duration of the WIL placement
- The names of participating employers
- Exact workplace locations
- Starting date
- Working hours
- Detailed duties for each placement
- A complete supporting-document checklist
- Whether interviews will be conducted
- How candidates will be shortlisted
- When successful applicants will be contacted
Do not rely on social-media comments or unofficial posts for these details.
Where information is important to your decision, contact the College using the enquiry details supplied in the advert.

Edupstairs Advice
If you qualify, apply as early as possible.
There are 53 opportunities, which is significant, but applicants should still treat the process competitively and professionally.
More importantly, pay close attention to the unusual CV requirement.
Do not assume that the CV you normally use for online job applications will automatically meet the College’s requirements. If there is any uncertainty about what is meant by a Curriculum Vitae “as per the high school curriculum,” use the official enquiry number and ask for clarification.
Eligible students should also think beyond simply getting selected.
If you enter a workplace through WIL, treat the experience as an extended opportunity to build your professional reputation. Arrive on time, follow workplace procedures, ask sensible questions, learn from experienced employees and keep a record of the skills and responsibilities you develop.
Those experiences can later become valuable evidence when updating your CV and applying for permanent employment.
