SKILLS DEVELOPMENT FACILITATOR (SDF)

In order to ensure that training is functional and adds value, it is important to have a workplace skills program in place with your respective SETA and SETA accredited training providers. We assist with the compilation of annual training reports as well as the development and implementation of your workplace skills plan .

 

This is a statutory legal requirement. If the youth wage subsidy and the 12H tax regulations are correctly implemented, this aspect of skills development can cause you to turn a profit on skills.

​

The Skills Development and Skills Levies Acts enable skills development by making training affordable through the grant levy system.
