Overview

Get Behind Your Candidates!   Make your experience work for them!    In today’s pressurised and demanding business world, engineering firms need all the help they can get to advance their candidates to ECSA registration.   Working on the front-line of SA’s struggle to beat the skills shortage, you can rely on the Candidate Academy to assist you with input and practical tools.

This one-day course is the equivalent course that we offer to candidates to understand and navigate the process to achieve ECSA registration.   This course is offered to those (supervisors and ECSA registered mentors) imparting the practical skills to candidates and those (human resources) who are involved in the rotation and placement of candidates.   It includes the tools to make up a workplace training plan, with digital enhancements to make the planning, tracing and reporting of activities easier to manager for mentors, supervisors and candidates.
