Skills Juntion Learnerships & Training Courses

Skills Junction Learnerships & Courses – What You Actually Need to Know in 2026

If you’re on the hunt for learnerships, short courses, or accredited training in 2026, you might have stumbled across Skills Junction. What I like about them — and what separates them from the sea of vague “training providers” online — is that they actually offer structured, accredited training solutions backed by SETA and QCTO standards.

What Skills Junction Is About 

Skills Junction brands itself as more than just “another training company.” They’re a QCTO and SETA-accredited training provider and a Level 1 B-BBEE contributor, which matters in South Africa because it means their training counts toward actual workforce credits under national skills frameworks.

They offer:

• Employed learnerships

• Unemployed learnerships

• Learnerships for people with disabilities

• Skills programmes

• Short courses

• Corporate training solutions

About Skills Juntion Learnerships 

The core of what most people are interested in is the learnerships — and Skills Junction’s setup here is pretty straightforward:

Importantly, they offer learnerships to:

• Unemployed youth

• Employed individuals wanting upskilling

• People with disabilities (ensuring inclusion)

This flexibility matters more than most people realise. Too many programmes either ignore unemployed applicants or treat workplace experience like an afterthought. 

Skills Junction explicitly targets both — which means someone fresh out of matric can actually walk into structured learning and on-the-job experience through the same pathway.

What you’ll typically need to apply:

• Certified copy of your South African ID

• Certified copy of your Matric certificate

• Recently updated CV

• Bank account confirmation letter

• Proof of SARS registration

• Disability confirmation if applicable

Applications are done by sending your documents to their learnership email (learnerships@skillsjunction.co.za) 

One honest piece of advice, if you’re applying for a learnership and you haven’t got your documentation prepared and certified, you won’t even get an interview — that’s just how strict SETA-aligned programs are.

Short Courses & Skills Programmes You Can Actually Use

A few types of short programmes they’re known to offer or support (some might run as skills add-ons, some as preparatory modules):

• Switchboard Operator Skills

• People Management SkillsEmployment Equity

• Chairing of Disciplinary Hearings

• Workplace Bullying & Harassment

• Anger and Stress Management

• Courses that help you navigate real workplace dynamics — like Dealing with Difficult People and People Management. 

These might be a couple days to a few weeks long, depending on how they’re structured, and again — because they’re linked to unit standards and SEF frameworks, they add real credits to your competencies even if you’re not doing a full learnership.

In my view, this combination — long learnerships plus flexible short programmes — is what sets Skills Junction apart in a crowded marketplace. They’re not just selling “courses”, they’re selling employment readiness.
