IOPSA Apprenticeships
An apprenticeship is a vocational education and training structured learning and work experience that leads to a registered qualification, the National Qualification Framework (NQF), and consists of a theoretical course, as well as practical training, which is done at the workplace. The programme combines high school curriculum and career and technology training with critical on-the-job training performed at a local business. An apprenticeship programme involves an employer, student and an accredited training centre. Each of these components holds specific responsibilities throughout the apprenticeship. The training centre’s responsibility is to provide quality training and fair, transparent and reliable assessment.
