  2. Meeting the skills demand for SIPS DHET Special Projects Unit

  3. Vision for Skills Plan: ‘Skilling South Africans - for SIPs and through SIPs’ Core Principle: Building people is as critical as building physical assets.

  4. The SIPs Projects

  5. SIP and Sector Skills Co-ordinators across SIPs

  6. METHODOLOGY used to determine skill requirements & scarcities:

  7. Focus Area One: Information: top scarce skills PROFESSIONALS Civil Engineer Electrical Engineer (incl. power and railway signalling engineer) Mechanical Engineer Geologist Safety, Health, Environment and Quality (SHE&Q) Practitioner Quantity Surveyor Biomedical Engineer Environmental Impact Analyst MANAGERS Construction Project Manager / Site Manager Quality Systems Manager Environmental Manager Engineering Manager Programme or Project Manager Policy and Planning Manager Finance Manager Health and Safety Manager Contract Manager TECNICIANS AND ASSOCIATE PROFESSIONALS 1. Electrical Engineering Technician 2. Chemical Engineering Technician 3. Mechanical Engineering Technician 4. Civil Engineering Technician 5. Forestry Technician 6. Surveying or Cartographic Technician 7. Associate Legal Professional ...

  8. Focus Area One: Information – top scarce skills CLERICAL AND SERVICE WORKERS Program or Project Administrators Traffic Officer Security Officer Secretary (General) Accounts Clerk General Clerk Contract Administrator PLANT OPERATORS AND ASSEMBLERS Excavator Operator Earthmoving Plant Operator (General) Loader Operator Crane or Hoist Operator Grader Operator Backhoe Operator Bulldozer Operator … TRADE WORKERS 1.

  9. Question: How best to meet the skills demand? ?

  10. Demand: from where, when? Option: Beyond our best estimates: Request / require all SIP projects to report vacancies onto DOL ESSA system This will enable key actors to monitor demand signals on a regular basis. NOTE: This is NOT the same as requiring all projects to recruit from ESSA, although as system improves this will hopefully become increasingly attractive. PROPOSAL ONE: PROJECTS TO REPORT VACANCIES ONTO ESSA. LEGISLATE?

  11. Demand: For employees only? For training places too? Option: Beyond our best estimates: Projects to list all training places (as per training plan required by cidb Training Standard) on ESSA – as a one-stop-shop for graduates and providers PROPOSAL TWO: PROJECTS TO REPORT TRAINING OPPORTUNITIES ONTO ESSA. LEGISLATE?

  12. Scarce OccupationsNeed to focus on the pipeline But work backwards to respond to demand

  13. Meeting the Demand: Occupational Teams School Theory Practical Workplace Experience

  14. Intermediate Body How do you participate in OTs? Occupational Cluster Management Professionals and Associate Professionals Service and clerical workers Trades Plant and Machine Operators Elementary and non-trade production workers • DPSA • CBE • Services SETA • NAMB • TETA • Cidb

  15. Electronic Portal to facilitate communication: Mechanical Engineering Occupational Team Assessor Work Place Training Convener Theory Training Convener Practical Training Convener Further Education and Training University Work Placed Training University of Technology

  19. CIDB Training Standard All contractors will be required to commit to a Contract Skills Development Goal (CSDG); • This can be achieved in four ways: • Method 1: structured workplace learning opportunities for learners towards the attainment of a part or a full occupational qualification; • Method 2: structured workplace learning opportunities for apprentices or other artisan learners towards the attainment of a trade qualification leading to a listed trade (GG No. 35625, 31 August 2012) subject to at least 60% of the artisan learners being holders of public FET college qualifications; • Method 3: work integrated learning opportunities for University of Technology or Comprehensive University students completing their national diplomas; • Method 4: structured workplace learning opportunities for candidates towards registration in a professional category by a recognized professional body or statutory council
