Continuing its commitment to supporting local tertiary education, the Kathu Solar Park has expanded its support programme of the Kuruman Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) College.
Following the initial phase, which has provided study bursaries to over 40 students, the second phase includes substantial upgrades to the college’s four computer labs.
Aimed at benefitting nearly 1 000 students with state-of-the-art technical equipment, it will improve the learning environment. The solar park has provided 80 desktop computers and desktop accessories, fully equipping four computer labs.
This support will strengthen the college, which is essential for providing tertiary education in remote communities and enhancing the quality of education and the student learning experience.
Zandile Nkone, CEO of the Kathu Solar Park, said this not only prepares students for the workforce but also supports local economic growth by enhancing employability within the community. Through this, the solar facility continues to foster the educational and economic development of the John Taolo Gaetsewe District, benefiting students and the wider community alike.
