The Public Service Education and Training Authority, known as PSETA, supports skills development within South Africa’s public service sector.
What Is PSETA?
PSETA is responsible for coordinating skills development in the public service and works with government departments and other public-sector institutions.
Its programmes can include learning interventions, internships, bursaries and other skills development initiatives.
Who Should Monitor PSETA?
PSETA can be particularly relevant to people who want to develop careers connected to:
- Public administration
- Government services
- Management
- Administration
- Policy
- Public-sector occupations
Are PSETA Opportunities Always Direct Applications?
No.
Some PSETA programmes are implemented through government departments and public-sector institutions. Therefore, an applicant should not assume that every PSETA announcement is a direct application for a government job.
How to Apply
Follow the instructions in the individual programme or vacancy advertisement and use official government or PSETA channels.
Conclusion
PSETA is an important SETA for people interested in public-sector careers. Applicants should monitor government departments as well as PSETA announcements for relevant opportunities.
