SKILLS DEVELOPMENT

EBH SA passionately believes in Artisan and Engineering Training and Development. We regard Apprentice-ships and Engineering investment as being key to the ongoing success of our organisation. Programmes such as Apprenticeships and Engineering have broadened our skilled artisan database to align us to meet future strategic objectives. Our involvement in these programmes since 2010 have produced numerous qualified artisans and engineers. Currently, the company has an intake of 20 apprentices, 4 of which are in their final year of training.

The apprenticeship programme is completed in 3 phases over 3 to 4 years.

Phase 1: Theoretical training in their respective trades at an accredited training provider for 10 to 12 weeks with the simulated practical approximately 40 weeks.

Phase 2: The simulated practical for the respective trades is run over a period of 43 to 46 weeks at EBH SA.

Phase 3: Apprentices return to the training school for their final phase of theory. The duration of theoretical training is between 8 to 10 weeks and the simulated practical is 42 to 44 weeks. Once all 3 phases of theory and practical ‘s are successfully completed the apprentice undergoes trade tests and 80% of the candidates are placed within EBH SA. The main goal of this ongoing artisan training and development project is to ensure that we have a continuous flow of skilled artisans for our future operational and growth requirements.
