Why CTU won this award
Through our engagement with leading companies such as Microsoft, CTU is able to offer opportunities to previously disadvantaged students and unemployed graduates. According to the South African National Scarce and Critical Skills list of 2013, the need for skilled IT professionals continues to grow. After a successful training intervention with MICT SETA and Microsoft through the development of an FET college in Mthatha, CTU and Microsoft planned to give skills to today’s students for tomorrow through a Microsoft Funded Learning Programme where 303 previously disadvantaged students and unemployed graduates were added to the CTU full time (1 year) programme with the purpose of developing the workforce in South Africa.

international MCSA, MCSE and MCSD exams were completed and 284 students are
successfully graduating in 2014 with a national qualification (NQF 4-6) and
international certification. Our workplace experience programme enables learners to become familiar with
corporate/working environments hosted by participating corporate clients. This gives our corporate clients a superior
selection of qualified and certified individuals, whom they could possibly
employ or place on a learnership to further develop the student on a higher NQF
level.
CTU manages
this entire development portfolio through the guidance of our empowerment
model, from building qualifications aligned to international vendor
certifications to reporting and providing after sales services.
