Resolution Circle, In Partnership With University Of Johannesburg, Launches Revamped Technical Training Centre. Resolution Circle, a leading ecosystem for technical training solutions, is proud to announce the launch of its newly revamped training centre in Welkom this week. This initiative marks a significant milestone in Resolution Circle’s commitment to enhancing technical education and fostering industry partnerships.
Initially established in 1981 under the stewardship of Anglo American and spearheaded by Snyman Naude as its designer and inaugural Manager, the training centre in Welkom has a rich history within the local industry. Owned by Harmony Gold Mining Company, the building has served as a cornerstone for technical education in the region. Following the departure of Adcorp Technical Training, the centre faced uncertainty about its future, but Harmony Gold Mining Company has graciously extended the lease, demonstrating their commitment to education and skills development. Now, Resolution Circle has taken the reins, embarking on a journey to revitalise and modernise the facility. Their dedication ensures the centre’s continued role in advancing technical education and fostering industry partnerships within the community.
With a strong affiliation with the University of Johannesburg, Resolution Circle brings credibility and expertise to the forefront of its operations. This partnership underscores Resolution Circle’s commitment to collaboration and excellence in technical training. “Resolution Circle is thrilled to introduce our brand to the community of Welkom and reinforce our pledge to enhance industry relationships,” said Gideon Potgieter, CEO at Resolution Circle. “Our mission is to create a centre of excellence in technical training, with the University of Johannesburg as our valued partner.”
The revamped training centre will offer turn-key skills development solutions tailored to meet the evolving needs of institutions and industries. In addition to its traditional focus on apprenticeships, Resolution Circle offers other categories such as Candidacy, Short Learning Programs, and Work Integrated Learning (WIL) for TVET College and University of Technology Engineering diploma students.
“Our focus sectors include Education, Energy, Gas & Water, Manufacturing, Mining and Transport,” added Gideon Potgieter “For the Welkom site specifically, we will expand into Agriculture, Agro-Processing and Renewable Energy, reflecting the region’s unique needs and opportunities.”
