Preparing Graduates for Employment

GRADUATES POSITIONING

Our organisation focuses on preparing graduates for employment by ensuring their participation in our programmes. Graduates are given an opportunity to explore and gain exposure within the working environment and this helps solving the country’s unemployment problems.

EMPLOYMENT STRATEGIES

We have a database of graduates and we continue to register graduates from various fields with the purpose of creating opportunities for training, experience and exposure so they are employable or employment ready. We equip our graduates with employment skills, training, and resources as well as creating positive mindset required for employment. Our goal is to have 10 000 graduates in 2022 who will be able to participate in community programmes supported by government, mining houses, businesses, donors, funders whose business values are willing to collaborate with us to champion poverty alleviation through human development.

ENTREPRENEURS AND BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

Entrepreneurs have interesting opportunities in the South African economy and can leverage on African opportunities with technology opening doors in the world. The challenges are skills, funding and infrastructure. We are striving to create a community of entrepreneurs that are able to identify local problems and create business solutions that are able to be sustainable. We help transform entrepreneurs’ mindsets to global trends applicable to locality. We help entrepreneurs with opportunities for incubation, support, legal documentation and business plans through our community of experts. We teach entrepreneurs about business customers acquisition, activation and retention whilst earning referral and creating revenue.

START UPS

We help to create and transform business ideas to a tangible and implementable business model. Our efforts are to educate on business trends, alignment, competence, positioning and goals for their business in line with global changes. We inspire the start-ups to think global and solve their local problems. We strive to create platforms for government agencies whose role is to support business to participate in ensuring the business start-ups are supported. We help initiate collaboration with business and mining houses for proper structured and localised enterprise development and supplier development programmes that enhance business skills and benefit them with B-BBEE compliance requirements.

CONFERENCES

We have the ‘Annual Tshikovha Graduates and Empowerment Conference’ which exists to address local challenges faced by graduates and entrepreneurs within specific communities. We are a movement that is guided by humanity and social values to change lives and spread enriching information. We invest time to assess local conditions and we determine solutions that would fit their needs. We believe, inspire and encourage young people in all spheres through influencing engagement that drives the passion of what they do.
