TRAINING PARTNERSHIP

Molteno in collaboration with the Limpopo Department of Education (LDoE) and the financial assistance from Rodger Federer Foundation (RFF) has one goal of advocating and promoting quality education for every girl and a boy child in South Africa. The means to attain the intended goal is through the School Readiness Initiative Programme (SRI) which enables all children to achieve their full potential.

This is an entry-level qualification for prospective learners who want to enter the field of Education, Training and Development, specifically within the sub-field of Early Childhood Development (ECD).
