Balwin Properties launches the first of several vocational training centres

It said on Friday that the first training centre at Mooikloof Smart City, east of Pretoria, will train more than 300 candidates annually in bricklaying, tiling, plastering, plumbing, electrical, first aid, firefighting, and working from heights.

Steve Brookes, the CEO and founder of Balwin, said, “The construction sector has lost a considerable number of vocational skills in the aftermath of the Pandemic. This initiative is aimed at empowering local communities as much as it’s about deepening skills in the sector, ensuring its long-term sustainability.

Ultimately, it will lead to a higher-quality product for our customers, and cost-savings for Balwin by doing it right first time.”
