Learnerships

SAB is committed to contributing to South Africa’s national skills development agenda by focusing on both internal and external human capacity development initiatives. External commitment to the skills development of unemployed learners is demonstrated both through the SAB Bursary Scheme and the provision of Learnership/in-service training/vacation work programs.

Learnerships/ In-service Training/Internships

SAB’s unemployed learner programmes are structured short term contractual interventions which encourage job creation and promote human capacity development. 

Learners who take part in these programmes will benefit from the critical functional and behavioural competencies gained, which contribute significantly to the learner’s employment marketability.

On completion of these programmes and respective academic studies, many of the participating learners transition into full time SAB employees.

At any given time, SAB has unemployed learner opportunities across most business disciplines. SAB partners with the various SETAs – particularly the FOODBEV SETA – to ensure alignment with the Skills Development Strategy within the FOOD BEV sector.

Vacation work

Vacation work opportunities are currently open only to students who are part of the SAB Bursary scheme.
