South Africa is currently experiencing a shortage of skilled tradespeople and therefore graduations from trade apprenticeship programmes are in high demand. A career in trade can offer a secure and well-paid future.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
An apprenticeship combines workplace and institutional learning in a national qualification.<\/p>\n
An apprenticeship is based on an agreement between the individual who wants to learn the skill and the employer who needs a skilled worker.<\/p>\n
An apprenticeship can last from two to four years, depending on the program.<\/p>\n
As an apprentice, about 90 percent of the learners time is spent learning practical skills, while being supervised by a qualified tradesperson.<\/p>\n
The rest is spent learning theoretical and technical aspects of your trade.<\/p>\n
