Property Sector Charter 2017

4.2 SKILLS DEVELOPMENT
CHALLENGES
Enterprises in the Property Sector are not
adequately investing in skills
development. Consequently, the Property
Sector is characterised by limited levels
of workplace development and
continuing educational programmes.
Moreover, there are limited accredited
curricula and training programmes
related to the property profession.
4.3 PURPOSE OF SKILLS DEVELOPMENT IN THE PSC
In response to the challenges, the PSCC
develops programmes in partnership with the
Sector Education and Training Authority (SETA),
Estate Agency Affairs Board (EAAB), any sector
regulatory body, government and academic
institutions aimed at outlining key actions to
address the backlog in structured skills
development for the Property Sector. Moreover,
the PSC requires enterprises to implement
internships for qualified individuals who will work
under the supervision of qualified property
practitioners, recognise prior learning and
promote continuous professional development.
The PSC requires enterprises to commit and
annually report on skills development, particularly
of black people.
