    Company description

    ISPA wishes to position itself as an enabler of ICT skills development, in line with the National Skills Development Programme, to provide a platform for the recruitment of interns on learnership programmes for its ISP members and, potentially, the wider IT community at large. In addition to matching candidates with internships and learnership programmes, ISPA proposes to provide bursaries for training in SAQA accredited institutions through a strategic partnership with MICT SETA; thereby reducing the bureaucratic friction for its members in managing the accreditation process.

    To support, develop and invest in the youth of South Africa.

    ISPA's Goals

    • To Improve the level of skills in the ISP industry by investing in skills development
    • To strengthen the information technology sector
    • To enable promising young candidates to pursue a career in the information technology sector by providing financial support to assist in covering IT and  computer courses relevant to the ISP sector, at recognised TVET or higher education institutions.
    Bursary description

    ISPA launched the ISPA Inspires bursary programme in December 2020, and awarded the first recipients of its bursaries in March 2021.

    ISPA has a long history of promoting educators and since 2004 has been responsible for the Super Teacher of the Year award. This award recognised teachers who have excelled in using technology in the classroom. At the end of this programme in 2019, over 3000 teachers had completed the teachers training course.
