Let Nembali assist your Company with Skills Development Legislation compliance.
As your Skills Development Facilitator (SDF), we will take responsibility for convening your training committee and ensuring that appropriate consultative processes around skills development are implemented.
We ensure that appropriate procedures and records are kept of training committee meetings and that meaningful Workplace Skills Plans (WSP) are produced and timeously submitted to the relevant Sector Education and Training Authority (SETA).
We liaise with SETAs regarding issues of skills development and oversee the implementation of all your training needs, including the sourcing and vetting of suitable training providers, managing training costs, keeping appropriate training records and ensuring the timeous submission of Annual Training Reports (ATR).
We conduct training needs analyses, manage discretionary grants and SETA funded projects and ensure that all successful grant applications are properly managed and that grant claims are submitted in the required SETA format in order that tranche payments can be made without delay.
We also assist with the coordination and management of learnerships, internships and apprenticeships, from identifying suitable candidates and matching them to accredited training providers, through to ensuring learner records, attendance and portfolios of evidence are properly maintained for reporting and audit purposes.
Skills development contributes directly to your B-BBEE scorecard, and we work closely with your team to ensure that training spend, learner numbers and reporting are structured to maximise your Skills Development points while remaining fully compliant with the relevant Codes of Good Practice.
Why register with a SETA and pay the levy? Under the Skills Development Levies Act, employers with an annual payroll above the exemption threshold are legally required to register with their relevant SETA and pay a monthly levy of 1% of payroll. The good news is that compliant businesses can claim a significant portion of this back through mandatory and discretionary grants, while also earning valuable B-BBEE Skills Development scorecard points. In other words, the levy isn't simply a cost — it's an investment that funds training you'd otherwise pay for entirely out of pocket. Nembali helps you navigate this process so your business recovers the full value of what it contributes.
Partnering with an experienced, independent SDF means your business stays ahead of legislative changes, avoids the administrative burden of managing WSP/ATR submissions internally, and gains a strategic partner who understands both compliance requirements and how training can be used to build real capability within your workforce.
