Joining Forces to Empower Communities Through Education and Skills
In a powerful collaboration aimed at transforming lives through education, Eden FM, Africa Skills’ GeorgeTech & George‑Ntaka, and Francois Ferreira Academy have joined hands to create meaningful opportunities for young people and communities across the Garden Route and beyond.
This strategic partnership is rooted in a shared mission: to inspire, educate, and empower South Africans through access to vocational training, skills development, and community upliftment. With Eden FM’s trusted voice in the region and UXi Artisan Development Group’s network of transformative learning institutions, including Africa Skills’ GeorgeTech + GeorgeNtaka and Francois Ferreira Academy, the partnership will bring awareness and hope to thousands of aspiring artisans, learners, and families.
Building Futures, Strengthening Communities
Through this partnership, radio meets real opportunity. Eden FM’s wide‑reaching community platform amplifies messages about skills training, job readiness, and educational access, while the Garden Route and Klein Karoo‑based UXi Artisan Development campuses provide practical pathways for individuals to turn those opportunities into real careers.
Learners now have a front‑row seat to success stories, training information, and career guidance via dedicated Eden FM segments and community features. This ensures that the message of empowerment doesn’t stay confined to classrooms; it reaches homes, workplaces, and youth across the region who might otherwise miss out on accessible, career‑focused education.
Exclusive Community Bursary: Real Access, Real Impact
As part of this partnership, an exclusive Community Bursary has been launched, opening the door for deserving individuals to begin their vocational journey with Africa Skills’ GeorgeTech + GeorgeNtaka and Francois Ferreira Academy.
The bursary reflects the local UXi Artisan Development campuses’ commitment to making education accessible and impactful, especially for those who have the drive but lack the financial means. It’s more than financial aid; it’s a chance to gain practical skills, secure employment, and contribute to South Africa’s growing demand for qualified artisans and skilled professionals.
