Upskill
for Africa was formed by Dr Nosisa Sipambo and Desiree
Channing out of their common passion for improving
peoples lives by teaching them how to learn. They saw
the need for a bridging programme for learnerships,
because a successful individual needs to be able to
bridge the gap between theory and practical to ensure
work skills.
Being able to learn, and apply what one has learned,
is fundamental to success in life. |
