AET Opens Doors

AET opens doors through lifelong learning.
[ydcoza_gap size=”10″] Before a structure is built, the engineers spend months on a solid foundation. Nobody sees the foundations – they never win architectural awards, but without them, the strongest structure is vulnerable.
[ydcoza_gap size=”30″] [ydcoza_quote]This analogy applies to your business.

You are dreaming skyscraper dreams – but are you building solid foundations?
[/ydcoza_quote] [ydcoza_gap size=”30″] This article is about the opportunities that Adult Education and Training (AET / ABET) provides. AET is a multifunctional tool that not only establishes a firm foundation for your business, it also allows your business to grow, expand and branch out. AET opens doors for your company and your employees – doors that lead to stairs which keep everyone on an uptrend.
[ydcoza_gap size=”30″] Let us explore the essence of AET:

Adult Education and Training is the foundation upon which a strong labour force is built.

In a recent article by Professor Alan Tucket, published by the World Economic Forum (WEF), he explains how lifelong learning is great for your health, your social engagement, your future prospects, and ultimately your family’s wellbeing. He reiterates how development is excellent for corporations too; it produces creativity, flexibility, problem solving and teamwork; allowing for happier, more productive staff members.
[ydcoza_gap size=”10″] [ydcoza_source]A government that supports adult learning fosters improved wellbeing.[/ydcoza_source] We have seen many examples of how adult training programmes have opened doors to lifelong learning since we began our adult education and training initiatives in 1991. This has brought about a positive change in the lives of hundreds of thousands of people through the progressive ripple effect.
[ydcoza_gap size=”30″]

How does AET open doors?

Since 1991 Triple E Training has assisted thousands of adults to realise their potential through foundational Adult Education and Training. Many of them were functionally illiterate to start, but after completing their training, they became more employable or received promotion. Some even continued to higher education – which is the epitome of lifelong learning.
[ydcoza_gap size=”30″]

AET leads to lifelong learning.

The Story of Workplace Training

It all started when Triple E Training wrote the book on Adult Basic Education and Training (ABET). Adult Training has certain elements that remain unchanged, but it has to be flexible and adapt with the times; it must be reliable but also relatable. Attention must be paid to the fundamentals.
[ydcoza_gap size=”30″] Triple E Training has been at the forefront of workplace training since 1991, and our fundamental pillars remain unchanged:

  • Passionate Account Managers
  • Structured learning material
  • Dedicated facilitators
  • Efficient support staff

Are you aware that your company can make a difference?

You can help your employees improve their overall well-being and improve your company’s performance by upskilling your workforce. This starts with workplace education and training.
[ydcoza_gap size=”30″]

2. Where does AET fit in?

a. AET in Business

[ydcoza_technical]Workplace Training is not a cost – it is an investment.[/ydcoza_technical] Triple E Training delivers workplace training to businesses throughout South Africa. We dedicate ourselves to educating, enriching, and empowering South Africans to advance in their place of work and their communities.
[ydcoza_gap size=”30″] Lack of training fundamentals is everyone’s problem – Triple E Training has the answer.
[ydcoza_gap size=”30″]

Imagine a place where fundamental adult education and training is not necessary because everyone is capable. It may seem ironic, but that will be the biggest celebration in the life of Triple E Training. We strive for the day when additional, foundational adult education and training is not necessary because every South African has received a good education. Unfortunately, the reality is far from the dream: our education system is lacking, our unemployment rate is unacceptable, and our skills gap is alarming.
[ydcoza_gap size=”30″] WE have a problem. Who will fix it if WE don’t?
[ydcoza_gap size=”10″] A large portion of our workforce is functionally illiterate, and yet many believe that they can cope in a business environment. They are expected to perform and deliver with no consideration of their abilities (or more specifically – their lack of abilities). Even a matric certificate cannot guarantee functional literacy these days.
[ydcoza_gap size=”10″]

This problem is not going away, and it is not within the power of the illiterate person to fix. These people need workplace education in the form of AET – training that will help them as human beings, build their confidence, teach them new skills, and earn their loyalty through investing in them. The benefits are the continuing, positive impact that this upgraded workforce will have on your business, your industry, and our country’s economy.
[ydcoza_gap size=”10″]

(AET / ABET) Adult Education and Training is the best way forward because it is focused, fundamental training for adults in the working environment. Unskilled employees will benefit from our training because our pre-training placement assessment ensures that individuals begin at a level that corresponds with their cognitive skills.

b. AET in the Community

[ydcoza_tip]Adult learning is vital in overcoming matters such as inequality and exclusion by supporting intergenerational advancement and thereby creating more resilient communities.[/ydcoza_tip] With our knowledge and your resources, we can teach, educate and upskill many individuals, assisting them into a future they might otherwise have missed out on.
You may choose to partner with us and offer community training.

  • We offer face-to-face, classroom-based training, on- or off-site, which can be implemented anywhere.
  • We develop our own instructional units and assessments that guarantee training which will benefit the individual.
  • Appraisal of learner’s aptitude after training ensures that they can apply their skills in real-world situations.
  • No matter where you are, or how remote your location, our facilitators come to you.
  • Once you select the training programme we take care of everything else.

c. AET and Triple E Training

We are passionate about the development of adult education. Our facilitators play a key role in making our training sessions succeed. We believe that at this level, a learner should be taught face-to-face and not left to self-study. With our passion for education, we equip learners for life; ensuring a balance of education and training in their socio-economic environment, enabling everyone to function competently as active citizens.
[ydcoza_gap size=”10″]

We aim to provide the skills and motivation for learners to pursue further qualifications offered at higher levels of the National Qualifications Framework. Our ABET / AET programmes are compatible and flexible enough to achieve these goals. We regularly consult with stakeholders to ensure that our AET programmes are relevant.
[ydcoza_gap size=”10″]

We offer adult training solutions to organisations and communities.

Our products and services include Placement Assessments, Adult Education and Training (ABET / AET), Foundational Learning Competence (FLC), Rapid Effective Life Long Learning (REALLL) and Workplace Learnerships.
