9. Trends in Artisan Training

10. Tracer Studies 43% > FIND WORK IN 3 MONTHS
Most of the individuals (76%) hold a permanent contract, while 24% hold a temporary contract position.
The temporary position varies in length, with less than half (47%) having a contract for more than a year, while 16% for less than 3 months.
Whether temporary or contract, from those that are employed, 90% of them are doing a job in the field that they studied. However those that do not get the jobs in the field that they studied have to take the job they can get .

Of the 66% that indicated what they earned before tax, about half of them (32,5%) earn more than R15000/month
NC(V) graduates average <R3000 p.m. in first year of work
University graduates range R11’000 p.m. (B.A. or B.Com.) -R18’000 (B.Sc. Eng.)
