What Does the iMas Learnership Involve?
The programmes are designed to combine classroom or theoretical learning with practical workplace exposure.
Learners can receive coaching and mentoring while gaining experience relevant to insurance and financial services.
Short-Term Insurance Learnership
The Short-Term Insurance (Non-Life) Learnership in Centurion provides exposure to areas such as:
- Telesales
- Customer service
- Call-centre operations
- Insurance-related activities
- Risk assessment
- Financial risk awareness
- Legislative and compliance requirements
The programme is associated with the sales function and is based at iMas Insurance Brokers in Centurion.

The Long-Term Insurance opportunity is available in both Centurion, Gauteng, and Secunda, Mpumalanga.
What Qualification Can Learners Obtain?
The available information states that successful learners have an opportunity to attain an Insurance Qualification at NQF Level 4.
The qualification forms part of the structured learning associated with the 12-month programme.
Applicants should note that the wording provided refers to an opportunity to attain the qualification upon successful completion; it should not be interpreted as a guarantee of employment after the learnership.
What Applicants Should Know Before Applying
This opportunity is specifically aimed at people who are currently unemployed and who meet the stated educational and participation requirements.
One important point is that applicants should not already be participating in another study programme, learnership, internship or YES Programme.
The Grade 12 requirement also specifies Mathematics and/or Accounting, so applicants should check that their Matric subjects meet this requirement before submitting an application.
The location is another important consideration. The Short-Term Insurance programme is listed in Centurion, while the Long-Term Insurance programme is available in Centurion and Secunda.
What Applicants Should Prepare
The source information provided does not give a complete list of supporting documents that every applicant must submit.
Applicants should therefore use the official application route and follow the instructions shown during the application process rather than assuming that particular documents are required.
Do not rely on third-party application pages if the official application platform provides different or updated instructions.

Why This Opportunity May Be Worth Considering
For applicants interested in insurance, the programmes offer more than workplace exposure alone.
The available information combines a 12-month workplace experience programme, theoretical training, coaching and mentoring with a R6,000 monthly allowance and an opportunity to attain an NQF Level 4 Insurance Qualification.
The different locations and insurance streams may also allow eligible applicants to choose an opportunity that is more closely aligned with their circumstances and interests.
However, the available information does not guarantee permanent employment after completion, so applicants should view the learnership primarily as a structured opportunity to develop insurance-related knowledge and workplace experience.
