The Process
How a Learnership Works
01
Find a placement
Search current learnerships and confirm that you meet the provider requirements.
02
Apply with the provider
Use the official application link and submit the requested documents.
03
Sign an agreement
Successful applicants enter an agreement with an employer and training provider.
04
Learn and work
Complete structured learning and supervised workplace experience while receiving a stipend.
05
Earn the qualification
