The allocation of funds is intended for programmes and projects that improve the supply of qualified and competent people for scarce and critical skills occupations.

Finally, the allocation of funds is intended to provide external mentoring support and training for business owners and learners in progressing skills needs.

The Services SETA will be conducting roadshows nationwide.
