Learnerships

What is a Learnership?

A learnership is a form of work-based or ‘on-the-job’ training which results in an NQF-registered qualification,
and is therefore a method to fast track the development of current employees or unemployed learners to
acquire qualifications as an alternative to formal academic studies.

Learnerships are linked to the Skills Development Strategy, and are seen as an important way of addressing
the skills shortages in South Africa.

Learnerships can be:

       Funded (discretionary grants) or unfunded (self funded by the company).

       Applicable for employed staff (section 18.1) or unemployed learners (section 18.2).

Learnerships must have the following elements:

       Registered with the Department of Labour.

       A formal training component (classroom environment) approximately 30% of the training provided.

       An on-job component (training provided in the workplace) approximately 70% of the training provided.

       Take place over a period of between twelve (12) and eighteen (18) months.

       It must result in a full registered National Qualification.

       Training must be provided by an accredited training provider.

       Delivery of a programme is based on a Learnership Agreement, which is a contract between a learner,
       an employer, Seta and a training provider for a specified period.

       A host employer and a workplace context to provide the work exposure and practical training, must be
       provided.

Most learnerships happen in a particular occupational sector (although some cut across different sectors),
and will therefore fall under a particular SETA which will put in place its own requirements.

Parties involved in a Learnership

      Learner: Signs a legal agreement with an employer.

      Employer: Signs a legal agreement with the Learner and provides the work experience required. The
      employer pays the learners a stipend and/or salary (where relevant).

      Training Provider/s: Signs an agreement with the Employer to provide the training on behalf of the
      Employer.

      SETA: Manages the ETQA compliance that results in the issuing of Statements of Results. Organises
      funding (where applicable).

      DOL: Assists in the recruitment and selection of unemployed learners providing a dataset from which
      Employers can select learners (where applicable).

Obligations of the Parties

Learner Obligations

      Comply with workplace policies and procedures;

      Complete any timesheets and accumulate their own written assessment tools to record relevant
      workplace experience;

Training Provider Obligations

       Provide and use relevant outcomes-based course material focussing on the development of applied
       competence in conjunction with practical training provided by the employer. The provider must also
       ensure course material and presentation of such material is without bias and prejudice.

       Record, monitor and retain details of training provided to the learner.

       Evaluate and assess the performance of the learner in terms of the relevant criteria. This means, for
       this purpose, the provider is entitled to access the learner’s workbooks, learning material and
       workplace, if required; and

       Report the learner to the employer in cases of misconduct, poor performance or incapacity.

Employers - Benefits
       Learnerships can create skilled people who:

             tend to work more independently, need less supervision and possess enhanced problem
              solving capabilities;

             are motivated and strive to add value to the business leading to better productivity and quality;

             are less likely to leave a company that takes an interest and invests in their personal and
              professional development.

       Providing learnership for unemployed learners contribute to building up the skills pool, from which you
       and other employers may recruit relevant skills as needed.

       Your company can make a meaningful contribution to South Africa’s global competitiveness and to
       creating an environment conducive to investment.

       Learnerships are a vehicle to addressing Employment Equity targets.

       Learnerships are a vehicle to BBBEE contributions - Preferential Procurement, Skills Development,
       Enterprise Development & Corporate Social Investment (CSI)/Socio-economic Development (SED).

       Tax incentives may apply – See section 12H of the SARS Act.

       Discretionary Grants may apply – refer to your relevant SETA.

BBBEE
Preferential Procurement
Codes of good practice require a total BEE measurable procurement spend of 50%.

Skills Development

Learnerships if structured appropriately can address most if not all 15 points for Skills Development.

Enterprise Development

learnerships, create economies of scale and may allow for claimable scorecard points.

Corporate Social Investment (CSA)/Socio-economic Development (SED)

Bursaries to unemployed person for skills programmes and/or qualifications, who achieve the same
outcomes as per Enterprise Development.

Funded Learnerships - Discretionary Grants
SETA’s through the SDL Act have access to discretionary funding for learnerships.
Funding is usually released in the form of a bursary allocated to an individual but granted to the employer.
Grants can also include: Stipends (for unemployed learners), employer incentives (gainful employment
grants), accommodation grants, assistance device grants – these are all discretionary.

Self-Funded Learnerships

Should a business self-fund learnerships, the business can access the 12H allowance as well as to claim the
training expense against the mandatory grant.
