⚡ WELCOME TO OUR ELECTRICAL WORKSHOP.

Built for practical training across LIGHT-DUTY AND HEAVY-DUTY ELECTRICAL WORK.

This is where electricity stops being something you only read about in a textbook & becomes something you understand, work with & develop through practical training.

From electrical installations & systems to the technical environments where skilled electrical professionals are needed across South Africa’s economy.

The South African Government identifies Electricians and Auto-electricians among the country’s in-demand artisan trades, while South Africa continues to address its shortage of skilled artisans.

THIS IS WHY WE BUILD.
Not just classrooms.
Not just lecture halls.

WORKSHOPS.

Places where students can learn practically.
Places where equipment becomes part of the learning experience.
Places where technical skills can be developed through hands-on training.

🎥 NOW WATCH THE TRANSFORMATION.

And remember:

THIS IS ONLY ONE OF OUR MANY ARTISAN WORKSHOPS.

🏗️ Rigging
⚙️ Millwright
🔩 Fitter & Turner
🛠️ Mechanical Fitter
🔥 Boilermaker
⚡ Welding
🚗 Automotive
🚰 Plumbing
🧱 Bricklaying
☀️ Solar Installation

🇿🇦 SOUTH AFRICA HAS A SERIOUS SKILLS CRISIS

& the story has now reached the national news.

🎥 WATCH THE SABC NEWS CLIP

South Africa continues to face a critical shortage of skilled artisans, with the South African Government specifically identifying Riggers among the trades in demand

So the question is not: “Do we need more skilled people?”

We know the answer !

The question is: WHERE ARE WE GOING TO TRAIN THEM ?

At COLLEGE OF AFRICA, we are answering that question with action

🏗️ WELCOME TO OUR RIGGER WORKSHOP

This is not a picture in a textbook

Rigging plays an important role across major industries:

🏗️ Construction
⛏️ Mining
🏭 Manufacturing
⚙️ Engineering
🏢 Industrial Projects
🚧 Infrastructure

& when heavy equipment, machinery & loads have to be lifted & positioned safely…

SKILLED PEOPLE MATTER

THIS IS WHY WE BUILD WORKSHOPS

Not just classrooms
Not just lecture halls
WORKSHOPS

Places where young people can learn practically
Places where skills can be developed
Places where the next generation of South African artisans can be prepared

🚨🔥 WAIT… THERE’S MORE. 🔥🚨

You thought we were done? - THINK AGAIN.
