Why This Workshop Exists
Managing bursaries within a B‑BBEE framework isn’t straightforward. With multiple scorecard elements, funding rules, and evolving compliance requirements — even well‑intentioned spend can fall short.
This interactive workshop blends theory with real‑world case studies to help you plan, structure, and verify bursaries effectively. You’ll gain clear guidelines, practical tools, and the confidence to turn your bursary investment into measurable B‑BBEE impact.

✔ A deeper understanding of how bursaries fit into Skills Development and SED
✔ Clarity on the Learning Programme Matrix and which types of spend qualify
✔ Practical interpretation of Codes & compliance clauses
✔ A walkthrough of real‑life case studies and challenges
✔ A clear guide to bursary verification planning
✔ The opportunity to ask questions and engage with consultants and the Bursary Manager in a smaller‑group
Who Should Attend?
This session is ideal for:
✔ Financial Managers needing clarity on allocations, planning and claims
✔ HR & L&D Professionals responsible for Skills Development strategy
✔ Transformation Managers aligning bursaries to multiple scorecard elements
✔ Business owners looking to maximise social investment and scorecard return
How This Differs From the BEE Chamber Free Sessions
Unlike our free webinars, this paid session goes well beyond the basics.
✔ In-depth Content – We move past the ‘what’ and into the ‘how’, including practical guidance on calculating bursary targets and points.
✔ Smaller, Interactive Group – Designed for real dialogue, not just broadcast.
✔ Real‑life Scenarios – Apply learning to actual bursary cases and challenges.
✔ Direct Consultant Access – Get in‑the‑moment feedback from specialists who manage bursary claims daily.
✔ Extended Time – Two full hours allows for greater clarity, discussion, and real application.
