BELIEVERS Care Society (BCS) is inviting owners of Early Childhood Development centres (crèches) and their staff members to apply for a skills development opportunity.
This was initiated to assist them to run their crèches professionally and also receive mentorship which will ensure that children under their care are properly taken care of, especially the orphans and vulnerable children. The project is supported by the United States President’s Emergency Plan for Aids Relief (PEPFAR).
Crèche owners and their staff will receive an accredited skills training course on FETC: Project management, SAQA ID: 50080. The course is for a duration of four months, attending only twice in a week which is Fridays from 1pm to 4pm and on Saturdays from 8am to 12pm. The duration of the entire project will be for six months which also includes the mentorship programme. A certificate of competence will be issued at the completion of the course to participants who completed and passed the course and also a certificate of mentorship participation on Aids Relief Programme. Registration is currently in progress and only 40 participants will be accepted, two people per crèche. Classes will commence on October 15. Classes will take place at the Development Centre at 85 High Street, Turffontein.
This course is completely free of charge. BCS is encouraging the crèches to come forward and take advantage of this rare opportunity especially those that are non-funded and lack project management skills.
BCS is an accredited provider of above course through Services-Seta with accreditation number 6494.
