The launch was held at the Protea Hotel King George on Friday 3 Oktober, en die opleiding het Saterdag begin.

Dit is 'n drie-maande program wat uitgevoer word met befondsing van die Decent Work in Construction Project, 'n inisiatief van die ILO en die Southern Africa Development Community (SADC), deur befondsing van die Sweedse regering.

Na voltooiing van aangesig-tot-aangesig opleiding sal individuele mentorskap aan elke deelnemer gebied word.
