Media, Information and Communication Technologies Sector Education and Training Authority (MICT Seta) – Bursary Scheme
The National Film and Video Foundation (NFVF) has partnered with the Media, Information and Communication Technologies Sector Education and Training Authority (MICT Seta) in support of skills development initiatives for the youth of South Africa.
The partnership entails two programmes, a bursary scheme for students as well as an internship programme for unemployed graduates. In line with NFVF’s mandate to provide and encourage the provision of opportunities for persons especially from disadvantaged communities to be involved in the film industry and with MICT Seta’s skills plan to address the issue of the shortages of adequately skilled persons from the same communities in key areas,the objective of the partnership is to the address the issue of the scarcity of skills within the film and television sector.within these groups.
This inaugural partnership has seen 20 interns and 135 students benefiting from the initiatives. The beneficiaries were revealed at a function held at Sandton Sun in Johannesburg today June 19th 2013.. The interns were shortlisted from thousands of applications received and the final selection was made from the interviews that were conducted.
The 20 interns have been placed at different organizations for their work experience, six interns are at the NFVF, ten at SABC and four at Quizzical Pictures. The placements were made on the basis of their academic qualifications and areas of intended career focus. The internship programme will run for a period of eight months, affording the interns an opportunity for permanent employment should there be a vacancy relevant to their field. In terms of the bursary scheme, the selected students are enrolled for film and television related qualifications at various accredited South African institutions of higher learning.
NFVF CEO Zama Mkosi said this is a very important initiative in terms skills development and exposing graduates to the work environment which increases their chances of being employable. “One of the biggest challenge we have in this country is unemployment and a contributing factors to this challenge is the fact that graduates often lack the basic work experience that entry level jobs require, and they find themselves not sufficiently meeting the job requirements. The NFVF is very honoured to to be making a contribution in an effort to close this gab. We hope that all the interns will enjoy and learn a lot from the experience they will receive at the organizations at which they have been placed. To the bursary recipients, we wish them all the best in their academic life. May they use this opportunity to lay a good foundation for their respective careers,” says Mkosi.

MICT Seta will conduct site visits to organizations where interns are placed as well as to tertiary institutions where students are enrolled. The purpose of such visits would be to monitor the progress of the two programmes and to ensure that the set objectives are met.
“In allocating grant funding towards government agencies such as NFVF for this project, the MICT SETA is well on track in redressing South Africa’s MICT Skills gaps and ensuring that access to specialized professions such as Electronic Media and Film are created for our young people,” says Mr. Oupa Mopaki, CEO of the MICT SETA

PSETA – SETA Application Info 2016
Public Service Sector Education and Training Authority – PSETA
The Public Service Sector SETA, more commonly referred to as the PSETA, is one of the few existing sector education and training authorities (SETAs) that is not going to be changed or revised in any substantial manner.
But the PSETA is a bit different to the other SETAs because it provides support to provincial governments rather than industry sectors. More specifically, it is aimed at providing support to provinces that were lumbered with huge backlogs from the previous government (or dispensation).
Role of the Public Service Sector Education and Training Authority
Essentially what the PSETA does is to assist provincial governments within an Integrated Provincial Support Programme (IPSP) with the aim of improving service delivery (with all its massive challenges) and extending good governance.
Initially, when the SETA programme was launched nationally throughout South Africa, the Eastern Cape, kwaZulu-Natal and Limpopo Province were targeted. Then in 2002, the IPSP was extended to assist Mpumalanga, the Northern Cape and Free State as well.
Part of the strategy needed to improve service delivery involves shared knowledge and learning opportunities. To this end, learning networks have been established with both inter-departmental and intra-departmental events organised to help educate those already involved in the provincial government sector. Some years ago a learning journal for public service managers was also launched.
So it is clear that college courses are important, as are discretionary grants and bursaries for learners who qualify and are eager to get workplace experience within provincial government. In fact all forms of education, training and learning are important, including whatever it takes to make this knowledge and the skills that go with it accessible to the people who need it.
The Integrated Provincial Support Programme
The Integrated Provincial Support Programme (IPSP) was initiated to release more funds for service delivery to the “poor”, largely by restructuring and improving governance via the regular interaction with citizens. With all the challenges service delivery nationally requires, transparency and accountability have been highlighted as key aspects.
The other challenge that the IPSP envelops is the need to be able to translate policy into action within the Batho Pele framework.
Batho Pele principles and service delivery
The South African Government’s Batho Pele principles are in many ways enshrined in the Constitution, but were developed specifically to improve service delivery in the public service.
There are eight basic principles:
- Consultation, which involves customers, users, groups, consumer representatives, HGOs and CBOs. More often than not a variety of methods of consultation are required.
- The setting of service standards that reinforces the need for benchmarks that will constantly measure satisfaction of the people for what is received from provincial government. Precise, measurable standards are required to be able to judge whether or not these are met.
- Increasing access to public services, since such a large number of people in South Africa simply don’t have access to these services. This principle recognises the fact that access to information and services empowers the citizens of the country.
- Ensuring courtesy, meaning that those operating within the provincial government sector should treat all the people of South Africa with consideration and respect.
- Providing information so that people know what to expect and what they can demand in terms of service delivery.
- Openness and transparency so that everybody knows how government institutions operate and what they can expect. This also implies that government employees are accountable.
- Redress when services are not provided as promised.
- Value for money which doesn’t usually require additional resources and often reduces costs.
The Government aims to promote “integrated seamless service delivery” within the Batho Pele policy. Both education and training are of course key.
Where to find the PSETA
The Public Service Sector SETA (or PSETA) is currently based in Pretoria, Gauteng.

SAMRO – CATHSSETA
SAMRO – South Africa Music Rights Organisation
CATHSSETA
The SAMRO Foundation is awarding two SAMRO/RIESA Special Undergraduate Bursaries for study in music performance for the first time.
Eighteen candidates from nine South African universities were entered for the bursaries. They included students in jazz piano, trombone, trumpet and voice, African music, marimbas, drums, voice and dance, traditional bagpipes, and Western art music piano, voice and clarinet.
The bursaries have the value of R18 000 each and are available annually to undergraduate students who specialise in music performance in the Traditional, Jazz or Western Art Music genres. Candidates for the bursaries are nominated by the Heads and relevant members of staff of music departments of South African institutions of higher education from among the ranks of their students. The candidates are required to show merit in the field of performance in one or more of these genres. The winners are chosen by the Artistic Committee of the SAMRO Foundation which takes into consideration such criteria as standard of performance, year of study and perceived financial need. In the event that there are no suitable candidates, the bursaries are carried over to the following year.
BACKGROUND
The Roodepoort International Eisteddfod of South Africa (RIESA) was a now-deregistered Section 21 not-for-profit organisation which, from 1981 to 1997, ran nine biennial international music competitions for amateur performers in Roodepoort.
In 2010, RIESA made a bequest of R700 000 to the SAMRO Endowment for the National Arts (SENA) – now the SAMRO Foundation – to establish and administer undergraduate bursaries for studies in music performance in South Africa. As with the many other bequests which the Foundation administers – including, among others, those from Ralph Trewhela, Eve Gettleson, Esme Webb, Maisie Flink, NOASA (the National Opera Association of South Africa) and Bonhams Auctioneers – the funds are invested and the interest is distributed as bursaries for music study in various fields.

Bursaries awarded to women in property
The Women’s Property Network (WPN) was established in early 2000 to create a forum for women in a predominantly male industry to join together to exchange information, develop business contacts and enhance professional success.
WPN bursaries awarded to women in property
Since 2008 WPN has awarded bursaries to female students studying towards a property related degree or diploma.
This year has been no exception, and a total of 13 bursaries totalling in excess of R500 000 (tuition and learning material fees) have been awarded to the students studying at various institutions across the country.
All the applicants were deserving in terms of personal circumstances, had achieved in excess of 60 percent average and showed a passion for the property industry. The WPN did not have sufficient funds to award all of the bursaries, and embarked on a fund raising initiative in February to register the WPN as a charity entry into the Two Oceans Marathon, and friends of WPN ran to support the charity.
Companies within the property industry were also challenged by Amelia Beattie, one of the Educational Trust’s Trustees, to pledge support to WPN for the awarding of 2014 bursaries. The response was overwhelming and within 48 hours of the request having been made, over R200 000 had been pledged.
In addition to these pledges, Delta Property Fund also made a significant contribution of R500 000 to the Educational Trust, thereby ensuring that all thirteen bursaries could be awarded.
This is according to WPN Chair, Sanett Uys, who says they have been overwhelmed by the generous support of companies in the industry and the WPN members who have contributed in their personal capacities. “On behalf of the WPN Executive, I would like to thank contributors for their support. The WPN Educational Trust is a special initiative, and one which has been nurtured for many years so as to ensure that young female graduates take their place in the industry and are able to make a meaningful contribution.”

Diba Letsoalo says the investment in her education is an investment into her future and hopes its an investment into the property sector.
Of the bursaries awarded, here are responses from some of the students:
Andrica Lekganyane
“I would like to thank all the funders for affording me the opportunity to study a Property related course and for the confidence they have in developing future female property leaders. It is an honour to be the recipient of a WPN bursary. You educate a woman, you educate the nation. Thank you Women’s Property Network for the generosity extended to the future of this country.”
Aqeelah Johaar
“I’d like to thank each and every one who made this bursary possible. Words cannot describe what it means to me and how grateful I am to be given an opportunity to be part of the very few lucky ones who received this bursary. Not only does this mean that I can study in peace without worrying about funding but it also means that I have an incentive to work harder knowing that people went to a great deal of effort for me to be awarded this bursary.”
Bonette Kehuptse
“This means that I am now able to pay for my tuition for my Honours year and buy textbooks that I would have otherwise not been able to afford. This also means that I have a more peaceful semester and not have to worry about outstanding fees and not being allowed to graduate at the end of the year.”
Azra Mia
Tintswalo Chauke says this will encourage her to work harder so that she can also give back to the fellow women who are in the property industry.
“I would like to express my sincere gratitude to everyone involved in awarding this bursary to me. University is an expensive endeavour. However, with your generosity, the financial burden upon my family and I has decreased drastically and will allow for me to pursue my dreams without too much stress. Thank you for recognising the need for bursaries around my chosen degree as they are very scarce. Thanks to Women’s Property Network and all donors’ contributions to the Educational Trust. I hope to be able to pay this kind act forward in the future.”
Thandiwe Gumede
“Receiving a bursary from the Women’s Property Network has provided me with relief from financial strain and looming debt traps that are disguised in well packaged loan offers. The freedom that this bursary is offering me is immeasurable and its effects will be felt well after the completion of my post-graduate studies.
“In addition to this, I am grateful for the investment in me and my career, as well as the opportunity to be mentored by women who are successfully making a mark in the property industry. Education remains the most powerful tool we have to rebuild our country with and to ensure sustainable transformation. I am excited to be a part of the change and to play my part in the rebuilding process.”
In addition to the awarding of the bursaries, the WPN through its regional chapters and committees will support these students by ensuring regular contact to discuss study material and any problem areas that may have arisen and will engage with the students at the networking events so that they have access to women active in the industry.

Dell South Africa provides bursaries
Dell South Africa provides bursaries to university students
Dell South Africa aims to develop literate and connected communities and to bridge the gap between the “haves” and “haves-not”. Providing quality education is one way in which it strives to bridge this gap. A percentage of every rand spent by a Dell customer goes to the Dell Development Fund (DDF). Over the past few years, the DDF has engaged in bursary programmes with the University of the Western Cape (UWC), the University of Venda, and the Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University (NMMU). This year, again, the DDF will be providing more academically deserving students the opportunity to have a bursary education at these universities.
According to Natasha Reuben, Head of Transformation, Dell South Africa Development Fund: “Graduating students are also offered a one-year bursuries with us at Dell. As a team, we pride ourselves on focusing on real transformation within the communities we call home and are proud to be involved with these organisations. We will continue to work to ensure these initiatives deliver real value and real benefits, contributing to sustainable development and economic transformation in South Africa.
“In addition to providing their tuition fees, DDF supplies the students with a Dell laptop, campus residential fees, a monthly stipend and educational materials. We strive to cater for any need they will have during the course of their tertiary education, so that they can concentrate their energies at excelling academically,” adds Reuben.
On completion of their final year, the students are rewarded with a Dell-sponsored and hosted year-end function, where they have the opportunity to meet and network with Dell employees. This opportunity is created for the students in order for them to meet the Dell staff and celebrate their achievements.
Over the past nine years, the DDF, which has established a number of training programmes and initiatives directed towards equipping young adults with both life and educational skills, has again awarded bursaries to academically deserving students.

Get a Bursary for 2015 and Become a Police Pilot
South Africa Police Service (SAPS) Bursary for 2015
The South African Police Service (SAPS) together with the Transport Education and Training Authority (TETA) is offering a bursary for 2015 to nine women who want to train to become police pilots, flying helicopters or fixed wing aircraft.
While the mission of SAPS is essentially to “create a safe and secure environment for all the people in South Africa,” TETA has been tasked with ensuring that students in the transport sector of South Africa get the very best training and therefore develop the best education and skills necessary to do their jobs.
TETA was only established as a SETA 15 years ago, two years after the promulgation of the Skills Development Act of 1998. At the time it took over the responsibilities of five training boards that were responsible for aerospace (flying), maritime (shipping), road passenger and road freight, and Transnet, which of course was in charge of the railways.
Additional sub-sectors have been added to the official demarcation of the transport sector – including forwarding and clearing and the taxi industry. Although SAPS does not fall primarily within the aerospace sub-sector, clearly this is a hugely important part of its function as a whole.
Bursaries From TETA and SAPS
The bursaries offered by TETA and SAPS are specifically for women, and even more specifically for those who are aged between 18 and 30 and unemployed. Each bursary for 2015 will include training and lecture material, a police uniform, license, accommodation and meals, and of course the examinations.
Applicants have until 16th January, 2015 to apply.
The minimum requirements for applicants are detailed, and again very specific. Applicants must be:
• Unemployed
• Well disciplined
• Patriotic, loyal citizens of South Africa
• Fluent in English and at least another official language of SA
• Without any criminal record or pending case against them
• In possession of a senior certificate (Grade 12) having passed Maths and Science with at least a Level 5
• Mentally and physically fit, and
• Without any height phobias
Applicants who meet the minimum requirements for the proferred bursary for 2015 will undergo a further vetting process. This will include a face-to-face interview that will help to determine whether they really are suitable or not. A number of tests will be carried out including fingerprint verification, security screening and also psychometric verification. There will also be medical examinations. Those people who are shortlisted with be interviewed and tested further to make sure that they are completely suitable for the helicopter and fixed-wing pilot bursary programme.
Those applicants who are accepted for pilot training will also have to do basic police training when required to do so.
How to Apply for a SAPS Pilot Bursary for 2015
Application forms – specifically the Z83 form – are available from all Public Service Government Departments. In addition to this form, applicants must attach a resume or curriculm vitae (CV) that shows personal, educational and any previous employment details; a certified copy of their identity document; as well as certified copies of their senior certificate (Grade 12) and the courses and/or diplomas that were obtained. If these documents are not supplied with the application form then the application will not be considered.
Enquiries to Colonel F.P. Blaauw – email or telephone 021-334 3721. Alternatively you can phone Lt Col De Wit on 012-334 3777.
Applications should be sent to Private Bag X177, Pretoria 0001 or 429 Helen Joseph Street, 7th Floor Shorburg Building, Pretoria. Mark them for the attention of Col Blaauw.
If you have not been contacted by 16th February (a month after the closing date of applications) then you know that your application was not successful.
Wholesale and Retail Learnerships by W&RSETA
Wholesale and Retail Learnerships by W&RSETA
The Wholesale and Retail Sector Education and Training Authority (W&RSETA), which has been operating in terms of the Skills Development Act for more than 14 years, implements strategies for national development in the huge wholesale and retail sector.
One of it’s most important roles is to initiate learnerships that enable “learners” to improve their knowledge, skills and ability in their chosen career. Learnerships also enable students to get a formal qualification that will enable them to get into the wholesale and retail industry quicker and more easily.
There is absolutely no doubt that people who take this route get increased employment opportunities once they have qualified. It is also an excellent route for learners who are already employed, but who are earning low wages because they do not have a proper qualification or the necessary experience to get ahead.
One of the most valuable aspects, as the W&RSETA points out, is that students are able to learn while they earn.
Benefits of Learnerships for Employers
Committed employers in the W&R sector agree that a learnership – which is essentially a “work-based education and training programme” linked to a valid registered National Qualifications Framework (NQF) qualification – is one of the best ways to facilitate empowerment of employees. It is also a brilliant way to develop a competent staff complement within businesses, and to ensure that workers get the relevant (very specific to an individual business) skills and experience.
Since employees who are qualified and experienced need less supervision, this will also improve the quality of work within the business, as well as overall productivity.
Employers also find that this is an ideal vehicle that may be used to address their employment equity targets, as well as to identify gaps that relate to skills and training.
Benefits for the W&R Industry as a Whole
The W&RSETA identifies three primary ways that learnerships benefit the industry:
1. They help to create a pool of skill personnel that is made up of more professional people.
2. They help to provide the W&R industry with direction so that it can develop according to general world standards.
3. The result of this programme is aimed to help the industry become more competitive in the global market as a whole.
The Role of the SETA in the Learnership Programme
While the W&RSETA facilitates and implements the programme, it does not recruit learners. This is the responsibility of the various employers and service providers, as well as training providers that specialise in industry-related learning opportunities.
To assist employers, service providers and training organisations and institutions, the SETA has formed partnerships with the Department of Labour (specifically the regional offices), the Centre for Youth Development (CYD), and the South African Graduates Association (SAGA) that provide databases of unemployed people who are looking for opportunities in the industry.
How to Register?
So if you are keen to forge a career in the wholesale and retail sector, make sure you are on at least one of these databases. There is also a list of registered qualifications and learnerships that is published by the W&RSETA. Currently all registration end dates are June 30, 2015. There is a Learnership Agreement on the W&RSETA website.
Student bursary & applications in Limpopo
Bursary application for students in Limpopo isn’t as straight forward as it should be. The reason is the limited number of FET colleges, universes and companies offering bursaries.
The real reason is the lack of businesses in Limpopo.
