Research Services for Gas and Skills Development

The Energy and Water Sector Education and Training Authority (EWSETA) is inviting proposals from qualified research service providers to undertake a detailed investigation into gas and skills development within the South African context. This research will span a duration of two years and is aimed at identifying current skills gaps, workforce needs, and potential training programs that can be implemented to support the growing gas sector. The findings will be instrumental in shaping educational and training policies, thereby enhancing the overall capacity of the workforce in this critical industry.

The successful service provider will be expected to deliver a comprehensive research report that includes quantitative and qualitative data, stakeholder interviews, and case studies. Key deliverables will also involve recommendations for curriculum development and training initiatives tailored to meet the demands of the gas industry. This project not only seeks to address immediate skills shortages but also aims to contribute to the long-term sustainability and growth of the energy sector in South Africa, making it a valuable opportunity for businesses focused on research and development in energy education.
