With the demands placed on industry to adapt to an ever changing environment and the unemployment crisis, accredited training has become imperative. Employees are also expected to perform multiple tasks sometimes not within their job description and therefore need to be provided with the necessary skills to perform these tasks effectively.
To meet these demands, Yelland has developed courses which offer credits that are NQF recognised. This means that not only does a learner attend a course that can give them immediate skills that can be used in the workplace, but at the same time these courses are valid credits for a higher education.
The importance of up-to-date and continuous training is not only essential but a necessity. The company's understanding of industry and education enables it to be a lifelong training partner, able to assist all training requirements, portfolio design, recognition of prior learning and skills-shortages. Its involvement with Omron, an internationally-based company, provides it with the means to offer advanced and leading edge technologies which is an essential tool for effective and relevant training.
Yelland offers courses on PLCs, drives, servos, HMIs, CX-Programmer software and industrial networking.
