We are excited to announce the launch of the BANKSETA Skills for Future Programme! This initiative is designed to empower high school learners with essential skills in robotics and coding, vital for navigating today’s technology-driven world.
In our increasingly digital society, the demand for skills in technology is growing rapidly. The BANKSETA Skills for Future Programme aims to bridge this gap by providing young learners with hands-on experience in fields that are shaping the future. This initiative not only promotes technical skills but also encourages creativity and innovation among students.
Launch of the BANKSETA Skills for Future Programme
Recently, students from Langa High School in the Western Cape demonstrated the incredible potential of this programme. With dedicated support from BANKSETA, they designed and built their very own robot as part of their school project. This achievement marks a significant milestone in their educational journey and showcases the power of practical learning.
The BANKSETA Skills for Future Programme offers workshops, mentorship, and resources to ensure students can thrive in these emerging fields. Participants will gain a foundational understanding of coding languages and robotics, equipping them with skills that are highly sought after in today’s job market.
What this means for the future
Moreover, this initiative fosters teamwork and problem-solving abilities, essential traits for future leaders in technology. By nurturing these skills, we aim to inspire students to pursue careers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).
The launch of this programme is just the beginning. BANKSETA is committed to expanding opportunities for youth across South Africa. We believe that investing in education and skills development is key to empowering the next generation.
As we move forward, we invite schools and communities to engage with us in promoting tech literacy and innovation. Together, we can inspire young minds and create pathways for their success.
