Structured training intervention for contractors in Hermanus and surrounding areas

29 September 2026 | by  

This programme is offered to contractors on CIDB Grade 2. However, CIDB Grade 1 contractors who have registered construction businesses and have been active in the industry for at least  2 years can apply.

  • The structured training programme is 8 weeks (extended over 8 months). One 5 day block week per month.
  • It is also accredited and contractors who complete the programme will receive a certificate of competence.
  • These shorter interventions are necessary so that the candidates do not spend too many sequential days away from their businesses.
  • Contractors will be assessed by writing tests on a monthly basis.
  • They must complete and hand in a Portfolio of Evidence (POE) at the end of the course.
  • This teaches contractors to structure and file their documents properly and in an orderly manner, and forms part of their final assessment.

The themes covers the following modules:

  • Enterprise Development;
  • Labour Intensive Construction and Innovation
  • Health and Safety
  • Contract Management
  • Surveying Practicals
  • Site Administration

Note: Those who have previously applied, need not re-apply.
