The Western Cape Cultural Affairs and Sport Department has invited unemployed youth to apply for the YearBeyond Programme to gain valuable working experience while also giving back to their communities.
YearBeyond is a youth in service partnership between government, the National Youth Development Agency (NYDA), donors and non-governmental organisations.
Initiated in the Western Cape, the national programme provides unemployed youth, aged 18 to 25, with meaningful work experience and a pathway to further studies or work, while at the same time encouraging a culture of community service.
Western Cape Cultural Affairs and Sport MEC, Ricardo Mackenzie, said in order to qualify, the applicants must be between the ages of 18 and 25, live within a 5km radius of a YearBeyond site, and must be registered on the SAYouth.Mobi platform.
Mackenzie said there were various streams within the YearBeyond programme where the youth can be placed, and some of the streams have additional qualification criteria including minimum matric marks in languages or maths.
“Through the YearBeyond programme, young people who are unsure as to what their next steps are can take up an opportunity to gain a year’s practical experience, improve their CV (curriculum vitae) and gain important skills which will help them to access future employment opportunities as employees or employers.”
