GRADnext — crossing the divide from student to working adult
The partners who produced GRAD now added a guide for senior students. GRADnext was created to help final year students and first-time employees to prepare for the huge transition from student life to the working world. The 20 short chapters contain clear and practical guidelines, from deciding which jobs to apply for, how to write a CV, how to prepare for interviews, and how to negotiate the world of working adults – including managing money. You can download the text or listen to the 20 audio episodes for free. Just follow the links below:
My Next is a free guide for high school students who want to succeed in matric and plan their future. My Next covers topics such as study skills, career choices, financial literacy, and personal development. It is available in English and Afrikaans, and can be downloaded or viewed online.

Providing a support network for students to thrive
Student Mentoring and Support Services
Our aim is to provide mentorship and academic, personal and career development support to all bursary students. Our processes alert us early on when a student is struggling academically and/or socially. We work with university academic support and wellness resources and with independent private wellness providers to ensure that students have access to suitable interventions. We want a future where access to tertiary education is a springboard for young people to obtain meaningful employment and contribute to a sustainable economy.
