Schneider Electric South Africa has signed a statement of intent with the Department of Higher Education and Training (DHET) to expand their Access to Education training collaboration. The Access to Education initiative speaks to the need for practical skills development within the field of energy. Since 2012, it has provided energy related education to almost 9 000 people and in the next four years will increase this to 30 000, including students, community members, entrepreneurs and teachers.
“Schneider Electric recognises the importance of collaboration between industry and government,” says Caspar Herzberg, president of Schneider Electric Middle East and Africa. “Initiatives such as these promote job creation and the establishment of new entrepreneurs. It is critical that we expand on collaborations between industry and government in the field of higher education, training, and skills development so that we may consolidate our efforts to prepare the workforce of the future.”
