SONANI TRAINING AND COMMUNICATIONS CC implements procedures for Learner Entry, Guidance and Support.

EEnnttrryy

SONANI TRAINING AND COMMUNICATIONS CCwill provide comprehensive information about the organisation, its facilitators, the available education and training programmes and entry criteria to all Learners, both prior to entry and during induction. Learners will have the opportunity to clarify their requirements and relate them to the products and services offered. The entry requirements will be as open as possible.

General induction to the organisation, and induction to different parts of Learning Prog rammes, will be included to ensure Learners feel comfortable and confident with the organisation, and fully understand and accept their responsibilities to the organisation.

During the education and training process SONANI TRAINING AND COMMUNICATIONS CC will ensure the needs of individual learners are identified, development plans formulated, process is regularly reviewed, feedback is given, support is provided and pre-exit guidance is available.

Learners will have access to guidance and support during the training intervention via coaches and mentors which will be sourced withinSONANI TRAINING AND COMMUNICATIONS CC.

ulties, aspirations, and needs will be undertaken by facilitators in partnerships with the Learner.

SONANI TRAINING AND COMMUNICATIONS CC will provide regular opportunities for Learners to review their progress and make any changes to their development plans while they are undertaking their programmes.

SONANI TRAINING AND COMMUNICATIONS CC will ensure that guidance and support services include activities such as assessment of prior learning and achievement, and assessment on demand. SONANI TRAINING AND COMMUNICATIONS CC will ensure that Learners embark on a programme that will enable them to achieve legitimate and realistic outcomes, e.g. to improve their skills, knowledge and competencies, compete more effectively in the labour market and progress to their chosen education and training programmes.

Support and guidance will be given to Learners in making sense of the training and learning, career opportunities and personal development choices, and in understanding, facing and resolving or adapting to, personal problems and difficulties which could inhibit progress.

It is acknowledged that many of the learners will have come from different backgrounds and with different scholastic achievements already in place it is therefore appropriate that prior scholastic qualifications be recognised. SAQA recognises that candidates may have prior learning in literacy and numeracy that may be recognized through a process of Credit Accumulation Transfer (CAT).

(Please refer to the separate CAT Policy).

Unemployed learners will be advised on the various Learnerships available and also referred to the national database for employers seeking employees.

All Learners will receive on-going support and assistance when integrating what they have learnt into their workplace. The use of practical examples and workshop-style learning also enables Learner integration into their specific situation. On-going support will be offered by the Facilitator/Assessor, in a training capacity, as well as on a consulting basis, potentially long after the training has taken place.

SONANI TRAINING AND COMMUNICATIONS CC will ensure the following off-site procedures and practices for practical or experiential elements of all learning programmes are followed in order to ensure the learners experience a valid learning experience:

Safety of learners The Venue Training Check list will be used on the premises that the learners will be in when conducting their practical / experiential learning. This covers all the physical resources, environment and safety and health aspects for the learners.

Rights of learners Learners rights are protected by ensuring the above actions are implemented as well as ensuring that all parties concerned have been sufficiently briefed as to the roles, responsibilities /

expectations of mentors / coaches / learners / assessors /

moderators / facilitators. Learners are given this information in the Curriculum Strategy Document before they start the learning experience.
