Ten benefits to unlocking your company’s potential with Learnerships and Bursaries

Fostering skills and empowering talent in organisations has become more crucial than ever. Are you partnering with the right institution to achieve your goals and make a real difference when it comes to Learnerships and Bursaries? 

Red & Yellow, with our expertise in education and industry partnerships, provides two ways to empower businesses to create tangible impact – through Bursaries and custom Learnership programmes. Here are ten ways you’ll gain when you unlock your company’s potential.

Red & Yellow Learnerships are designed to drive change within organisations. Each is tailored to your business’s goals and allows you to unlock the following benefits:

1. Access to preferential SETA funding:
   Our Learnerships offer you exclusive access to discretionary funding provided by the Services Sector Education and Training Authority (SETA). This funding enables you to implement robust and comprehensive skills development programs.
2. Higher B-BBEE skills development recognition:
   When it comes to Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment (B-BBEE), Red & Yellow Learnerships earn you greater recognition in skills development compared to other training programmes. Strengthen your B-BBEE compliance and contribute to South Africa’s transformation goals.
3. Inclusion of learners’ salaries for skills development spend:
   Red & Yellow understands the financial commitment involved in nurturing talent. That’s why our Learnerships allow you to include learners’ salaries as part of your skills development spend, making it more cost-effective for your organisation.
4. Bonus B-BBEE points through absorbing students:
   By absorbing Learnership students into your organisation, you not only provide them with valuable work experience but also earn bonus B-BBEE points. This dual benefit helps you enhance your B-BBEE rating while fostering a skilled workforce.
5. Diverse talent pipelines for transformation and longevity:
   Red & Yellow Learnerships help you build strong and diverse talent pipelines that contribute to transformation and ensure the long-term success of your organisation. Our learners are equipped with the necessary skills and knowledge to drive innovation and adapt to the ever-changing business landscape.
