How Black Owned Education Institution Atvance Academy Seeks To Reduce Unemployment And Upskill The Youth. Atvance Academy is a 80% black-owned, level 1 B-BBEE and SETA-accredited company. It was formed with the purpose of partnering with companies in order to reduce unemployment and upskill the youth of South Africa.
Atvance Academy’s goal is to give young unemployed South Africans the chance at a better life. As a 80% black-owned, level 1 B-BBEE and SETA-accredited organisation, the company believes that education and skills development are the best way to bring down unemployment. That’s why it partners with companies to offer sponsored and SETA accredited skills training to young, unemployed South Africans. We work with community leaders, community centres, libraries and schools to help open campuses in their local areas. This allows the institution to make education affordable and convenient and brings it closer to its goal of training 80 000 learners a year.
Further to this, the company is also affiliated with the government’s National Skills Development Plan, which allows organisations to implement skills development training while optimising their B-BBEE points. Implementing skills development training allows sponsor organisations the opportunity to alleviate some of the country’s socio-economic problems. This is due to the fact that economic growth goes hand-in-hand with funding quality education, delivering work-ready individuals, and creating sustainable future employment prospects – everything that the Atvance Academy model has been designed to deliver. With years of experience in the industry, the company’s team is able to offer end-to-end compliance management solutions, as well as facilitated management of the entire process on behalf of it’s client’s organisation, no matter what the size or scale.
The academy seeks to improve the lives of young unemployed South Africans through training and skills development. Using its experience in consulting and training, the company also works with companies to bring down unemployment and educate unemployed youth. The academy currently trains 30 000 learners every month at 245 rapidly growing campuses across South Africa. Through this training, it is able to give young South Africans a chance at a better life, create more jobs, grow the economy, and give South Africa a brighter future.
