You are in good company























Maximise your Skills Development Scorecard
Transcend believes that becoming a BEE compliant company is no longer good enough. True sustainable transformation requires companies to re-evaluate HOW they do business, WHO they do business with and WHAT types of business they do. This is true for skills development initiatives.
Learnerships need to be implemented in a way that adds the most value to the business and should not be viewed as an adjacent strategy, thus adding value to company and country.
Transcend is especially committed to promoting disability inclusion through learnerships. People living with disabilities remain one of the most marginalised groups in the workforce.
By prioritising disability learnerships, your business can unlock additional B-BBEE benefits while driving genuine social impact and aligning with ESG and inclusive employment goals.
Our Accredited Learnerships
At Transcend, we believe in unlocking real value through skills development that leads to long-term employability and economic inclusion. Our QCTO and SETA accredited programmes are built on a multi-structured learning model that equips learners with both the qualifications and the practical exposure they need to succeed in the working world.
Learnerships result in a nationally recognised qualification registered on the National Qualifications Framework (NQF). These programmes are designed to deliver more than just technical skills—they also develop critical life and workplace competencies such as communication, teamwork, and problem-solving.
Our learnerships are fully accredited, quality-assured, and aligned with South Africa’s national qualifications framework. Whether you are looking to empower unemployed youth or looking to invest in your team, we’re here to guide you through every step of the journey. Each programme is governed by a structured agreement between the employer, the learner, and an accredited training provider.
This ensures alignment, compliance, and impact from day one. Through these programmes, you not only meet your Skills Development and B-BBEE objectives, but also contribute meaningfully to South Africa’s socio-economic transformation by creating pathways to sustainable employment.
