Sanlam
Sanlam MFS and MM was held in Villiersdorp community and in ASHTON Zolani Location it was a great opportunity, but the challenge was a time frame and the age group.
The program was well planned for them, they learn new things and the skills, which they have participated a lot on saving and investing through their retirement and the UIF which the don't understand how does it works, they engaged a lot on how to focus and learn to control themselves, by starting their own businesses in order to earn on it.
The understanding of all the sessions was amazing although we had a challenge of the vanue, the learners were kicked out, then we had to do trainings outside, what surprise me is that the learners were eager to learn they didn't go, they stay and learn, that shows how important that training was.
The learners are seasonal workers, which they learn a lot retirement annuity, pension fund and UIF funds, they didn't know any difference in all 3 but now they are aware of what to do when they go back to work. Thank you Avocado and the Team for such great opportunity.
