SHA TESTIMONIAL

PART TWO

In part two of our SHA testimonial series we hear what Ogiyonke has to say about her experience at SHA :

Ogiyonke

It was the beginning of June 2013,  when I received a call from SHA. I was more than excited because I was called in for an interview.  I then passed the interview, after that,  i was told that the learnership was starting on the 10th of June at 8 o'clock.  It was a Monday morning when I was excited and happy to be starting my new journey.  We were all excited,  happy to finally be given a chance to build our future,   we had great leaders,  we grew up to be a huge family,  that took care of each other.  I then grew so much in SHA, I learned alot, that's where I found myself,  and with the mentor sections that we had, they really helped alot, we learned how to deal with different situation in a workplace,  how to behave around your colleague's,    it was hard to say goodbye to everyone, at the end of our theory section,  i  then found a job at uShaka Marine World as a parking cashier on the 14th of November 2013,   that's where i am still at at the moment,  and I am grateful for what the learnership has done for me,I am who I am today because of the BankSeta Learnership,  and all thanks to SHA.

Very kind and encouraging words from Ogiyonke. Clearly showing that SHA is the way to go.

SHA Testimonial Part One

SHA TESTIMONIAL

PART ONE

Here at SHA we pride ourselves in our learners, and they acknowledge the extent we go to, to make sure they are taken care of. The learners themselves have written out their very own testimonials in which this blog will be focused on. In part one we shall see what a learner named Ronson has to say.

Ronson

June 10- A new chapter in my life began,the opportunity given to disabled learners like myself to experience the working world and to be guided along the way with dedicated personal such has : Stan, Wesley, Pat, Ronelle, the spine of the learnership project.

It was great to see so many different types of learners therefore we had the chance to learn and grasp knowledge from others as we all became friends and exchange thoughts ideas beliefs cultures etc

We have went through the formalities and it was time to get to the theory component of the learnership, which was 4 months and our facilitator was none other than Pieter. A great man who understood our disabilities and made us feel important and never underestimated us in any way,always helped make learning exciting and made us want to be in class. The excitement of working with colleagues in a class room based environment was just a thrill on a daily basis. We enjoyed exchanging ideas,working well as individuals but progressing has a team.

8 months practical- The members of SHA worked around the clock to install computers in order for us to learn practically and be able us go paperless meaning we didn't have to write anymore but all our tasks and stuff were being typed and saved to the hdd so we were becoming familiar with the functions of the pc unit and getting the necessary skill thought to us to help us in the working world. Imagine not knowing anything on a cpu but after 8 months you a brand new person.

It was a year full of excitement plus we even had casual day for disability awareness also celebrated heritage days. We experience the joy of being in other people's shoes together.

Ronelle- The Mother Hen.

Very dedicated individual towards the learnership. Always willing to help the learners. She always put the learner's interest first at heart,did everything in her power to see smiles on everyone faces a real captain and a advantage to have on your team.

I want to say thank you to the members of Stanley Hutcheson and Associates it has been a great learning experience and one that I'm proud off.

To the public out there if you are looking for a opportunity look no further Stanley Hutcheson and Associates is the stepping stone to success.

'When you believe, you achieve'

 Believe in Stanley Hutcheson and Associates and you will achieve.

I'm a proud learner.

The End

Casual Day At SHA

Casual Day At Stanley Hutcheson & Associates

Casual Day was on the 5th of September and 

the learners of the IDC ( which we spoke about in the last blog ) had a fun filled day taking part 

in the Dress The Best competition.

                                                                                   

For those of you currently living under a rock ( no shade thrown, I'm sure it's a lovely rock ), allow me to explain what Casual Day is. Casual Day is a fundraising campaign in South Africa for people currently living with disabilities.
Stickers are sold at R10 each and are to be worn to show support for the cause.

We had all smiles and laughter at SHA on Friday.

Especially when SHA sponsored the learners 
with a Nandos lunch,very tasty.

Overall it was a great day at SHA,not only because of free food 
and fun but also because the awareness of the struggles and
hardships of people living with disabilities had been brought to attention and had many people demonstrate their kindness by donating to a worthy cause

IDC? What's That?

Why Is This Important?

What's IDC you ask? We at SH-A acknowledge that it is difficult for people living with disablities to find jobs and gain job experience,and so we make it our priority to help them by lending a hand where needed by offering them a program where we will be giving them training and job experience in a contact centre. We have this campaign in Durban,Johannesburg And Cape Town
