One portal for every step of the skills pipeline
From first registration to final placement, the FTSEZ Skills Development Portal gives job seekers, employers, training providers and programme staff a single, traceable record — no paperwork lost between offices.
Four stages, one continuous record
Every application moves through the same four checkpoints, in the same order, so nothing slips between hand-offs.
Register
Applicants can register and review the programme details and entry requirements.
Public Intake
Candidates discover the programme and the requirements before they apply.
Online Application
Identity, demographic and technical-preference details are captured once.
Dashboard Tracking
Applicants upload outstanding documents and watch their status update live.
Built around the Fetakgomo-Tubatse Special Economic Zone
FTSEZ sits inside Limpopo's Sekhukhune District, at the centre of one of the country's busiest platinum and chrome-processing corridors. This platform exists so that skills development keeps pace with the operators setting up around it.
Through the Admin Module and its automated reporting engine, programme staff can query candidate records, filter by qualification or locality, and match technical capacity directly with the anchor tenants operating inside the zone.
