Following the success of Brinny Mphogo, the first graduate of FedGroup’s Beneficiary Care Education Trust Programme, FedGroup has launched an adjacent Learnership Programme, Iteke – Sepedi for challenging yourself. The programme will look to challenge beneficiaries to shape a future for themselves, and in doing so build role models out of them. Mphogo will head up the programme as a mentor to the beneficiaries. He hopes to inspire the selected beneficiaries and mentor them in the same way he was mentored.
He said, “In 2005, FedGroup invested in me, my education and my future. I would like to extend this investment to beneficiaries. Iteke is not a programme for beneficiaries who are looking to entertain a gap year, but for those looking to build a strong foundation for future success.
“Through Iteke, we are giving our beneficiaries access to the tools that they require for optimal development. We are presenting them with an opportunity to unlock their full potential. They will graduate from Iteke with a sense of independence and an understanding of interpersonal and corporate communication.”
Selected beneficiaries will be chosen in November and the programme will start in January next year. Over the course of that year, the selected beneficiaries will rotate through FedGroup’s various departments, gaining important skills and hands-on experience. Beneficiaries will be remunerated and taught how to save and invest their money.
