Kitso Ya Boleng (KYB) Academy is taking new steps in 2024 to further succeed in technical artisan training by launching its technical training facility in Potchefstroom.
This state-of-the-art training facility, located on the corner of R53 (Parys Road) and Modderdam Road, comprises nine accredited programmes for automotive motor mechanics, boilermakers, millwrights, diesel mechanics, electricians, fitters and turners, mechanical fitters, transportation electricians, and welders.
KYB Academy hosted an open day from 2 to 3 February with various stakeholders and prospective students participating in the interactive two days.
Current students and assessors showcased various fields to prospective students and provided course information during a practical tour of the new training facility. KYB Tech is a registered private TVET College and QCTO skills development provider with dedicated and qualified staff who are experts in their fields.
According to Tiaan Jooste, chief operating officer at Kitso Ya Boleng, the main goal of the technical training facility is to equip students with a quality education that empowers them with knowledge and
practical skills for the workplace.
“Ten months of training is done on-site, where they utilise theoretical and practical
components. Work-integrated learning then follows. The focus is to get students up to the
standards of the industry. We want companies to know that when a job applicant has qualified via KYB, they are the number one choice,” elaborated Jooste.
