What is required from learners in a learnership?
You need to sign both a Learnership Agreement and employment contract, thus two legal documents. The Learnership Agreement is signed by yourself, the employer and training provider and sets out the responsibilities of all three parties. The employment contract is signed between yourself and the employer and is only valid during the time of the learnership.

What learnerships are available?
A list of all the available learnerships are available on the Department of Labour’s website. Go to useful documents and then choose “Registered learnerships by Sector Education and Training Authorities (SETAs).” SETAs are the organisations that arrange learning in specific areas of the economy of our country, for example construction, transport, etc. You could also contact your nearest Labour Centre for information. Ask a career counsellor to assist you to choose a learnership best suited to you. There are 39 pages of learnerships and each SETA has developed a number of learnerships!
