The FET Certificate in Correctional Services Learnership in DCS

A rewarding opportunity to acquire the skills, knowledge, attitude and acceptable workplace behaviour required within the correctional environment while earning a stipend of R3 500 for 12 months (Ref. 1/2 012).

The DCS is looking for persons from various communities, and with various interests and appropriate qualifications to enrol for the Further Education and Training Certificate in the Correctional Services Learnership (NQF Level 4). The function of these trainees will be to contribute towards the rehabilitation of offenders through correction and human development in secure, safe and humane detention or under community-based correctional supervision.

Basic enlistment requirements: • South Africans who are in possession of a Grade 12/Standard 10 Certificate; or • South Africans who have successfully completed the National Certificate in Vocational Studies (NQF Level 4); or • South Africans who have successfully completed a further Education and Training Certificate NQF (Level 4) • Preference will be given to candidates with an additional qualification(s) such as a Trade or Occupational-based Certificate, diploma or degree related to Corrections/Security or with outstanding Grade 12 /Matric results. Additional qualification(s) will not be recognised for the stipend paid or for future remuneration purposes.

Furthermore, applicants must be South Africans who: • Are between 21 and 35 years of age • Have strong character • Are law-abiding citizens and are without criminal records (particulars of the pending criminal cases must be provided during the selection process).

The FET Certificate in Correctional Services Learnership
The learnership is outcome based and is intended to contribute towards addressing the skills shortage in South Africa.
The Correctional Services Learnership is based on a legally binding agreement between the employer, learner and service provider.
The Learnership Programme will be presented for a period of 1 year consisting of:

Theory
±30% intensive instructional learning theory, which is inclusive of firearm, physical and self-defence training, will take place at designated accredited DCS colleges. Free accommodation, meals, training material, uniform (fieldwear and tracksuit) will be provided during this training phase. The obligatory theoretical training strictly requires the learner to be accommodated at the training college on a full-time basis.

Workplace Training
This is a ± 70% workplace learning phase that will take place at the Correctional and Social Reintegration Centre/Units.
Please note that this will entail duties related to the rehabilitation and provision of security to offenders.
During this phase, learners will continue receiving a stipend. The learners will be responsible for their own accommodation, meals and transport.

No pension fund, housing allowance, housing subsidy, danger allowance, medical aid or overtime will be paid by the employer during the theoretical as well as during the practical training phases.

The learner will be regarded as competent after the successful completion of the instructional learning phase, the workplace learning phase, the final submission of the Portfolio of Evidence (POE) and successful external verification by SASSETA.

Any contravention or deviation from the Learnership agreement during the 12-month period will be dealt with by the DCS in accordance with Sections 17 and 18 of the Skills Development Act, 97 of 1998.

On completion of the Learnership, learners will receive an FET Certificate in Correctional Services: NQF 4. However, the Department of Correctional Services does not guarantee permanent employment thereafter.

How to Apply
Complete the application form in your own handwriting. The “Application for Admission to a Learnership in DCS” form is obtainable from all Correctional Services Offices. The forms can also be obtained from the DCS website (www.dcs.gov.za). Please take note that these forms are not for sale. Report any form of corruption on the Department Investigation Unit Hotline 0800 701 701 or on fax number (012) 323 7901.

Specify the learnership post for which you are applying (eg Gauteng Region: Leeuwkop (Ref 1/2 010). The application must be signed by the applicant (not by a proxy, agent not representative of the applicant).

Attach certified copies of your certificates and ID document that are not older than 3 months. No late, incomplete nor unsigned application forms will be accepted. Furthermore, no photocopies of completed forms, faxed or e-mailed applications will be accepted.

Taking into consideration that you have to provide your own transport and accommodation during your experiential learning, you are therefore advised to apply for learnership enrolment within the Regional Management Area closest to your place of residence. Where possible, the application forms with the accompanying documents can be hand-delivered or posted to the following addresses:

Dear Groundbreakers,

2012 is already a week old and we all thank God for the good start we all had together and we look forward of what the Lord has planned for us as BCYD!

We had the priviledge to see many of you at the different regional camps, below are some random facts of our presidential tour:

- All together we drove over 1400KM
- We sat around 16 hours squeezed together in a car
- Visiting 4 camps from 5 regions in 6 day's
- spending time with around 260 young people
- celebrating the last day's of 2011 and the first of 2012 together
- Slept for a night on the floor
- Helped pulling a car out of a ditch

We want to send to all of you a big "THANK YOU" for all the hard work you do and the great time we had together with many of you.

Keep up the good work!
Your BCYD
Verse for 2012:
But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. 2. Corinthians 12:9
