The FET Certificate in Corrections Services Learnership
The learnership is outcome-based and is intended to
contribute towards addressing the skills shortage in South Africa. The
Corrections Services Learnership is based on a legally binding agreement
between the employer, learner and service provider.
The Learnership Programme shall be presented for a period of one year consisting of:
Theory
A ± 30% intensive instructional learning theory, which is
inclusive of firearm, physical and self-defense training, which will
take place at designated accredited DCS colleges. Free accommodation,
meals, training material, uniform (field wear and tracksuit) shall be
provided during this training phase. The obligatory theoretical training
strictly requires the learner to be accommodated at the Training
College on a full-time basis.
Workplace Training
This is a ± 70% workplace learning phase that shall take
place at the Correctional and Social Reintegration Centres / Units.
Please note that this will entail duties related to the rehabilitation
and provision of security to offenders.
During this phase, learners shall continue receiving a
stipend. The learners shall be responsible for their own accommodation,
meals and transport.
No pension fund, housing allowance, housing subsidy, danger
allowance, medical aid or overtime shall be paid by the employer during
the theoretical as well as during the practical training phases.
The learner shall be declared competent after the
successful completion of the instructional learning phase, the workplace
learning phase, the final submission of the Portfolio of Evidence (POE)
and the successful external verification by SASSETA.
Any contravention or deviation from the learnership
agreement during the twelve months period shall be dealt with by the DCS
in accordance with Sections 17 and 18 of the Skills Development Act, 97
of 1998.
On completion of the learnership, learners will receive an FET Certificate in Corrections Services:
NQF 4. However the Department of Correctional Services does not guarantee permanent employment thereafter.
