Why This Opportunity Matters

For many TVET students, workplace experience is an important step towards completing their qualifications and moving into employment.

The KZN Provincial Treasury programme provides eligible students with the opportunity to spend 18 months gaining practical experience in a provincial government environment.

Students in Office Management can develop practical administration and organisational experience, while Financial Management students can gain exposure to activities connected with public-sector financial administration.

The experience can strengthen a graduate’s CV by demonstrating that they have applied their classroom knowledge in a real workplace.

However, completing the programme does not guarantee permanent employment with the Treasury.
