Hey future admin pros! 🚀 Are you fresh out of matric or looking to kickstart your career in a vital sector? We’ve got some exciting news from the South African Health Products Regulatory Authority (SAHPRA)! They’re offering an amazing Business Administration Learnership, and while it’s officially a learnership, it’s essentially a funded opportunity to get hands-on experience and a qualification.
Let’s dive into how this SAHPRA Business Administration Learnership Bursary could be your stepping stone to success in 2025!
This isn’t just any ordinary learnership; it’s a fantastic 12-month programme from SAHPRA, partnered with the Health and Welfare Sector Education and Training Authority (HWSETA). SAHPRA is super important – they regulate all medicines and health products in South Africa, keeping us safe and healthy. This learnership gives you the chance to gain a Further Education and Training Certificate in Business Administration (NQF Level 4) while getting real-world experience in a crucial government entity. Think of it as getting paid to learn and qualify in a field that matters!
Who Can Apply?
Want to snag this opportunity? Here’s what SAHPRA is looking for:
- You need to have a Grade 12 (Matric) certificate or an N4/N5/N6 qualification.
- You must be a South African citizen with a valid ID.
- You should be between 18 and 35 years old.
- This is for unemployed individuals only, and you shouldn’t be enrolled in any other learnership right now.
- Make sure you have a clear credit record and no criminal record.
- You must live in, or be willing to move/commute to, Pretoria as that’s where the training and work happen.
Psst! SAHPRA is keen on promoting diversity, so applicants from designated groups and persons with disabilities are strongly encouraged to apply!

- Duration: It’s a full-time, 12-month commitment.
