Adult Basic education and Training service providers must be fully accredited in order to provide employers with the assurance that any program put in place to raise the literacy and numeracy skills of the workforce will be effective. Without accreditation any qualification in line with NQF requirements will not be valid and will not allow the employee to proceed to the next level of ABET training. It is thus the responsibility of the employer to ensure that any service provider is registered with the correct government agency or department and that the training that they provide is in line with industry best practices.

One of the most exciting discoveries for any child is when the signs at the road start to make sense and when the time comes for Daddy to stop reading the bedtime story and for the child to begin exploring the wonderful world of the printed word. However for many people in South Africa that day never came. The 3.3. million illiterate people of South Africa are the legacy of the Apartheid educational system. However this is changing due to the actions of some dedicated educators who are helping government and business roll out Adult basic education and Training programs across the country.

Adult basic Education and Training service providers are being accredited at an ever increasing rate due to the commitment of both business and government to providing every citizen of South Africa with the tools to be able to enjoy a high quality of life. By providing adults with literacy and numeracy skills ABET programs allow them to take their place in the mainstream of society. Without these skills these adults are limited in the choices that they can make, both within the economic sphere and within social situations. By eliminating illiteracy ABET programs are making the dream of a real rainbow nation a reality.

An education is something that no one can ever take away from you. Once you have learned the rudiments of reading and writing the world is your oyster, with the basics you can read further, improving your education. You can achieve almost anything you desire once you have the mental tools at your disposal. Unfortunately for the estimated 3.3 million illiterate people in South Africa they simply do not have these tools. However this is changing due to the fact that Adult basic education and Training programs are being rolled out across the country and are today benefiting 100’s of thousands of people.

The South African constitution frames several rights that cannot be denied to any South Africa, perhaps one of the most important of these rights is the right to an education. Without an education one is relegated to the fringes of society and doomed to a life of menial labour. Unfortunately this right has only been recognised as universal since South Africa became a democratic country. For decades before this most of the population received an education that was woefully inadequate. This has led to widespread illiteracy. Today ABET programs are rectifying the mistakes of the past and allowing the previously disenfranchised a new outlook.

The role of Adult Basic Education and training in changing the economic destiny of South Africa should not be underestimated. As South Africa’s natural commodities grow scarcer and as the job of simply getting them out of the Earth becomes more costly and dangerous so the economic emphasis must change to one of a knowledge economy where the products are primarily value added (for example jewelry making) or the product of ideas (consultancy services). If this change is to be successful then South Africa needs an educated workforce. The various ABET programs being rolled out across South Africa are the first step in this direction.

It is becoming clear that ABET service providers are changing the face of both South Africa’s business environment and social fabric. By providing learners with basic literacy and numeracy skills Adult Basic Education service providers are deepening and widening the skills pool and providing employers with a far greater resource of skilled workers than has traditionally been the case in South Africa. By providing these basic skills the service providers are also allowing people to reach their full potential and contribute far more meaningfully to their communities, as well as providing for their families. The trickle down effect of ABET also instills a respect for education that ensures that a younger generation will be more committed to both primary and tertiary education.

The basic skills of reading, writing and being able to add, subtract and multiply are the cornerstones of participation in a world that is rapidly changing. Increasing urbanization and competition for employment mean that any person not in possession of these basic skills will be marginalized and able to perform only the most menial of tasks in order to make a living. This is why Adult Basic Education and training fundamentals are absolutely essential. By providing these basic skills ABET service providers are changing the face of South African society and giving many of its citizens the first chance at achieving their true potential.

When some of the adults of today were only learners  the education system experienced some failures, and due to this many of these adults lack the basic educational background and therefore also fall short in some essential life and business skills. For these adults to successfully participate in the various corporate environments they have to undergo certain levels of training. This is where ABET (Adult Basic Education and Training) courses come in to play and teach workers the fundamental skills to not only survive in a corporate environment, but also to thrive and excel in everything they set out to do.

Learners who complete these courses have to date only shown astonishing results and have made great improvement in their personal lives and business achievements. ABET will ensure that you and your workers are fully literate and portray sufficient numeracy and will therefore be able to compete at international business levels.
