We Care About Life’s Important Things
NID Training NPC has its foundation in a resolution taken on 3 March 2021 by the Board members of the National Institute for the Deaf (NID) to activate a Non-Profit Company (NPC) and Public Benefit Organisation (PBO) that can provide accredited post-secondary education and training to persons with disabilities and persons who are under employed so that they can enter the labour market self-sufficiently.
NID Training has evolved over the past 2 decades (originally as a department of NID, and since August 2021 an independent NPC), thus have reached a level of maturity, where its training and work placement services were expanded to all 9 provinces.
To address the high unemployment rate amongst under skilled youth and persons with disabilities. NID Training offers accessible accredited occupational and artisan skills training and work placement services at all its operational campuses.
Through working with our industry partners, we have researched and implemented a disability-inclusive business model at NID Training. This model allows our team to collaborate closely with executive teams, Human Resource Managers, Business Partners, Skills Development Facilitators, as well as professionals in transformation, employment equity, and learning and development. Together, we identify the specific types of disabilities that align best with the needs of each organisation.
NID Training’s vision is: The holistic development of under skilled youth and persons with disabilities
