In the business world, navigating through the maze of regulations and requirements can sometimes feel like trying to find your way in the dark. That's where a Skills Development Facilitator (SDF) steps in as your guiding light.

So, what exactly is an SDF? Think of them as the captain of your company's skills ship. They're responsible for steering the course when it comes to all things related to skills development within your organisation.

But who needs to appoint an SDF? According to the Skills Development Levies Act, if your organisation is registered for skills development levy purposes with SARS, then having an SDF is a must. Your SDF needs to be officially recognised by the relevant SETA.

A qualified SDF is an expert in Skills Development and in most cases, exceed the knowledge of a company's own staff because:

1. They're familiar with SETAs and the Department of Labour, which means they know exactly who to talk to for info.
2. They can get the lowdown from SETAs and the Department of Labour in record time.
3. Qualified SDFs have special access to SETA systems for stuff like WSP/ATR submissions because they're registered with SETAs.
4. They're pros at using your company's training info to ensure your WSP/ATR submission is spot-on.
5. They're on top of it every year, ensuring your WSP/ATR submissions are on point.
6. They have the qualifications to back it up, like an NQF5 National Higher Certificate.
7. They can help your company determine its training needs in accordance with its goals by consulting with your training committee.
8. They have a Rolodex of training providers and can help you choose the best provider for your training needs.
9. They're your go-to for applying for funding from SETAs for training. Plus, they'll walk you through all the different funding options available.
10. They're all about real change, helping you meet your Skills Development goals based on what your company actually needs.

In short, your SDF is your ticket to seamless Skills Development success. Our expert team is ready to step in and guide you through the journey. Let's make those WSP/ATR submissions shine before the April 30 deadline!
