The wind industry has diverse skills requirements. These comprise professional services, business services and sales. The programme supports the development of specialist skills that are needed to facilitate the exponential growth of the wind energy industry and support economic growth in South Africa. This year, the programme will include a ten-day work readiness training segment, facilitated by an external service provider, that will coach the graduates in the soft skills needed to enter the workplace, such as email etiquette, communication and how to work as a team. “Equally important, the programme is recognised as a major contributor to social, environmental and economic security in the country,” Govender pointed out. Funded primarily by the Energy and Water Sector Education Training Authority (EWSETA), in partnership with the South Africa Wind Energy Association (SAWEA), the programme is expected to place 35 interns, selected from over 90 applications, this year.
