Theme : Water Sector Capacity Building Chapter NWRS Workshops October - December

Background to Skills Development Landscape The skills shortage and low levels of water literacy can be attributed to a fragmented approach on education, training and public awareness. Despite the overarching positioning of the National Qualification Framework(NQF) as a design imperative, education, training, human resource and DWA skills development have not aligned into an integrated, seamless process. Skills challenges have primarily been converted into human resource management concerns, resulting in the neglect of a pipeline approach to education and training. 2
