History:
In 1960 Spoornet opened the Spoornet air conditioning and refrigeration training centre. Spoornet’s restructuring resulted in the privatisation of the training facility in August 1998, thus opening the doors of the Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Academy. Our Lecturers have trained students from the entire industry and have achieved international status training people from several of

the southern African countries. The ACADEMY became an accredited Decentralised Trade Testing Centre in 2003. Accreditation:
The Academy carries FULL ACCREDITATION (merSETA) for the training of apprenticeships, learnerships and skills programmes in air conditioning and refrigeration levels 2 through to 4, as well as Decentralised Assessment Centre status for Trade Testing and licensing for Safe Handling of Refrigerants for the South African Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Contractors Association (SARACCA). All courses are therefore recognised and are nationally and internationally certificated and/or licensed or carry a Diploma. Training Overview
The Academy has the resources to train all aspects of the Air conditioning and refrigeration fields up to level 4. The emphasis is in the training of apprentices / learnerships, artisans and technicians as well as aspects for management requiring technical knowledge. The training is specialised to the fields of air conditioning and refrigeration. The training is competency based, meaning, any student attending a course is given an in depth theoretical knowledge and the practical skills in order to achieve competency in the workplace. Given the nature of the training required all courses have a full practical element. The aim of all the training is such that on successful completion of any particular course the student will be capable to do the job as required.

NATIONAL YOUTH SERVICE (NYS): COMBATING YOUTH UNEMPLOYMENT THROUGH SKILLS DEVELOPMENT INITIATIVES 👷🏽‍♀️🔧
As the Northern Cape Province hosts the NYS Coordinators Forum, National Youth Service Coordinators from various provinces visited the Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Academy in Kimberley, where the Northern Cape DRPW is training young people to become professionally qualified Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Technicians.
👉 Who said EPWP does not create sustainable jobs?
The visit highlighted the importance of the NYS, under the auspices of the EPWP, in equipping unemployed young people with practical skills, internationally recognised qualifications and meaningful opportunities that can open doors to sustainable livelihoods.
Through initiatives such as the EPWP and National Youth Service, young people are empowered to develop their skills, gain valuable workplace experience and prepare for the world of work.
The Northern Cape DRPW remains a trendsetter in advancing youth development, skills training and economic opportunities for young people across the province.
