Top SMME training for top road construction company

The improvement of a 27,5km portion of Section 2 of the R510 from Bierspruit to Thabazimbi created hundreds of new construction jobs when the project peaked. This is in addition to the many local small, medium and micro enterprises (SMMEs) who were appointed to work alongside and received quality training in various road construction trades from principal contractor, Raubex.

Tjeka Training Matters was again appointed by this leading infrastructure development group to train construction workers and SMMEs on its behalf.

We provided training in the installation of open-lined V drains; precast-concrete kerbs and concrete channels; subsoil drains; gabions; and guardrails. About 60 people – around 12 individuals per course – benefited from the training.

These short courses of between eight and five days in duration comprise both theoretical and practical training. They are designed to have an impact by imparting sound road-building knowledge quickly and efficiently. Upon completion of the training, individuals receive a certificate from Tjeka that confirms that they are competent in their fields.

“Road construction and maintenance projects help to address some of South Africa’s most pressing social and economic challenges relating to unemployment and widespread poverty.”
