Recommendations: 2
TVET need to be proactive in
awareness raising and developing
generic green skills within two
categories (soft skills and common
processes).
Teachers and practitioners are the key
change agents.
High skills training in specific green
skills is required.
Recommendations: 3
Recommendations: 3 (cont.)
Green skills should be incorporated
in NCS for NQF certificates.
Training system between private and
government systems need to be
rationalised.
Need to expand the scope of green
skills to informal sector and rural
sector.
