What is Springboard + ?
Springboard+ is a Government initiative offering free and heavily subsidised courses at certificate, degree, and masters level leading to qualifications in areas where there are employment opportunities in the economy. These areas include ICT, engineering, green skills, manufacturing and construction, among many others.
There are 248 courses available for 2024-25 across the country, the majority of which are flexible and part-time.
Purpose of the Event:
