On 5 November 2026, EWSETA officially launched the Women Leading in Water Resource Management Executive Development Programme, in partnership with Duke Corporate Education.

The programme will equip 50 employed women with the leadership skills and expertise needed to take on senior roles across South Africa’s water sector.

Through this initiative, EWSETA is investing in developing a stronger pipeline of women leaders who can contribute to the future of water resource management and water security in South Africa.

The future of South Africa’s energy and water sectors depends not only on infrastructure and technology, but also on the skills and expertise needed to sustain them.

During the EWSETA Annual General Meeting, Mr. Oupa Bodibe, Acting Deputy Director-General: Skills Branch at the Department of Higher Education and Training (DHET), highlighted the importance of transforming the post-school education and training system and embracing the skills revolution.

He emphasised that skills development must go beyond enrolments and certificates, with greater focus on occupational competence, employability, practical experience, innovation and productivity.

He also highlighted the need for a just skills transition alongside the just energy transition, ensuring that young people are prepared for employment, workers can adapt to changing occupations, and employers have access to the skills they need.

South Africa’s energy and water sectors need a skills system that responds to changing economic, technological and developmental needs.

Skills development must create opportunities that change lives.

At the official launch of the Mpumalanga Skills Development Zone, EWSETA CEO, Ms Kedibone Moroane-Nkhobo, emphasised that a just energy transition must deliver more than cleaner energy. It must open doors to decent work, entrepreneurship and sustainable livelihoods for workers, young people and communities.

Through its skills development interventions in Mpumalanga, EWSETA continues to emphasise the importance of aligning training with industry needs, strengthening partnerships and connecting people to meaningful economic opportunities.

Because the true measure of a just transition is not simply how many people we train, but how many lives we transform.
