What Our Graduates Say

Students who trained with us and went straight into work.

I did the excavator course and got a job on a mine within a month. The instructors let you spend real hours on the machine, not just watch.

Sipho M.Excavator Operator, Rustenburg

I travelled from Limpopo and the free accommodation made it possible for me. Seven days later I had my forklift certificate and a job at a warehouse.

Thandi N.Forklift Operator, Johannesburg

The welding workshop is proper — real steel, real machines. I finished boiler making and CO2 and now I weld on a fabrication contract.
