NOTICE TO STAKEHOLDERS

Dear Valued Stakeholder

Due to the rise of the COVID-19 infection cases and the new Delta variant that is spreading rapidly, CATHSSETA has put in the following measures to assist with minimising the spread of the virus:

  • CATHSSETA will no longer be accepting hard copies for Industry funded learner agreement. This exercise is to minimise physical contact between CATHSSETA and its stakeholders.
  • The learner agreements will be loaded on the CIMS system.
  • Validation and approval of the learner agreements will be done on the system by the Learning Programmes Unit.
  • Once the learner agreements have been uploaded on the CIMS system the Learning Programmes Unit will validate and approve on the system.

We urge our stakeholders to forward copies of their non-CATHSSETA qualifications electronically via We Transfer or Drop box to Ms Priscilla Mahlangu on priscilla@cathsseta.org.za

Please note that no stamping will be done at this stage because the approved Declaration of Intent (DOI) will be sufficient as proof of registration.

Kind Regards,

CATHSSETA Communications and Branding

TRACK AND TRACE STUDY

Dear Valued Stakeholder

CATHSSETA invites you to participate in the Track and Track research study conducted by the appointed service provider, Urban-Econ Development Economists (Urban-Econ). The study entails the tracking and tracing of beneficiaries of CATHSSETA learning programmes (learnerships, internships and apprenticeships, bursaries, TVET WIL and University Placement).

The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of CATHSSETA funded programmes on the beneficiaries and the greater industry through determining the employment status of the beneficiaries and to assess the value of these programmes for employers.

Considering the COVID-19 pandemic, as CATHSSETA and our research partners, we are compelled to review our processes and methodologies to comply with the regulations put in place by government to curb the spread of the virus. Therefore, the research survey (interview and/or survey) will be administered either electronically through an online survey or telephonically.

Your participation in the study will be much appreciated.

Kind Regards,

CATHSSETA
