SKILLS DEVELOPEMENT FACILITATORS
MQA Skills Audit Project Launched
The National Skills Development Facilitator (SDF) Forum was conducted on 24 August 2011 at the Birchwood Hotel in Boksburg. The forum was well attended by relevant MQA stakeholders such as SDFs as well as representatives from the labour organisations.
The aim of the forum was to give feedback on the WSP-ATR 2011 submission process as well as to launch the MQA Skills Audit Project whereby organisations will be requested to establish the skills capacity of their employees.
Further information about this project is available below and organisations within the mining and minerals sector that wish to participate in this project will be required to complete an application form.
