The Durban Chamber of Commerce and Industry appreciates the work undertaken by the Ministerial Task Team over a thirteen month period to assess the past performance of the SETAs and put forward a set of recommendations to improve the performance of the SETAs in future. Members of the Chamber have not been satisfied with the performance of SETAs, in general, while recognising that some have been a great deal more effective and efficient than others.
This presentation was made under New Member Empowerment Programme, with researched guidance on a Road Map tap Global Opportunities. Indian CAs are well respected internationally and undoubtedly globally opportunities are immense, however, CAs for better chances, must equip themselves with certain key skill sets to enhance their marketability to avail opportunities.

Apprenticeship?
What is Registered Apprenticeship?
Introduction
The Registered Apprenticeship system has been utilized to meet the needs of America's skilled workforce for over 75 years. It is a unique, flexible training system
that combines job related technical instruction with structured on-the-job learning experiences. Registered Apprenticeship is a leader in preparing American workers
to compete in a global 21st Century economy because the system keeps pace with advancing technologies and innovations in training and human resource
development.
The Registered Apprenticeship system provides the opportunity for workers seeking high-skilled, high- paying jobs and for employers seeking to build a qualified
workforce. In this regard, the Registered Apprenticeship system effectively meets the needs of both employers and workers.
Registered Apprenticeship is highly active in traditional industries such as construction and manufacturing, but it is also instrumental in the training and
development of emerging industries such as healthcare, energy, and homeland security.
It's an Immediate Job
Apprentices start working from day one with incremental wage increases as they become more proficient on the job. Apprenticeships range from one to six years,
but the majority are four years in length. In 2011, more than 130,000 individuals nationwide became apprentices.
It's On-the-Job Learning and Education
The "Earn and Learn" training model of Registered Apprenticeship provides a unique combination of structured learning with on-the-job training from an assigned
mentor. Related instruction, technical training or other certified training is provided by apprenticeship training centers, technical schools, community colleges,
and/or institutions employing distance and computer-based learning approaches. The goal is to provide workers with advanced skillsets that meet the specific needs
of employers.
It's a Credential
Upon completion of a Registered Apprenticeship program, participants receive an industry issued, nationally recognized credential that certifies occupational
proficiency, is portable, and can provide a pathway to the middle class. In many cases, these programs provide apprentices with the opportunity to simultaneously
obtain secondary and post-secondary degrees. In 2011, over 55,000 participants nationwide graduated from a Registered Apprenticeship program.
What are the Advantages of Registered Apprenticeship?
The Registered Apprenticeship system provides a wide array of benefits.
For apprentices, benefits include:
• Improved ...
NATS - An INDUSTRY oriented insightful Presentation over the SchemeLa Fourier Consultants
The National Apprenticeship Training Scheme, a flagship programme from Government of India aims at skilling India to meet future requirements. This scheme bridges the gap existing in the market place, between the employer’s requirement in an employee and the talent pool of students available in the market. It allows the organisations to recruit raw, technically qualified candidates, train them for one year with subsidy from Government of India and absorb them on regular roles if the need arises. The apprentices are governed solely by the Apprentices Act 1961.

Maintenance Skills Training for industry is a hot subject right now. In many areas of the country, companies are competing for skilled maintenance personnel.
“A Deloitte study found that the skills gap may leave an estimated 2.4 million positions unfilled between 2018 and 2028, with a potential economic impact of $2.5 trillion”
The skill level of the maintenance personnel in most companies is well below what industry would say is acceptable. In the past, I have been involved with the assessment of the skill level for hundreds of maintenance personnel in the U.S. and Canada and found 80% of the people assessed scored less than 50% of where they need to be in the basic technical skills to perform their jobs. The literacy level of maintenance personnel is also a problem. In some areas of the United States we find that up to 40% of maintenance personnel in a plant are reading below the eighth grade level. After performing the Gunning FOG index, we find the reading level for mechanical maintenance personnel should be the twelfth year level and electrical maintenance personnel the fourteenth year level (associate degree).

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
