The Skills Development Facilitation Practitioner Programme is an accredited Occupational Skills Programme (SP-220321, NQF 5, 40 Credits) designed to equip HR, Training, and Skills Development professionals with the competencies required to manage skills development planning in a highly regulated environment. This intensive 5-day programme prepares delegates to conduct learning needs analyses, align organisational training with legislative requirements, and administer SDF processes essential for Mandatory Grant submissions.
