CJC Opens Doors for Global Experience Through China Internship Programme

Central Johannesburg TVET College (CJC) is offering an exciting international opportunity for its graduates to gain global skills and exposure through a prestigious internship programme in China.

In collaboration with the Chinese Culture and International Education Exchange Centre (CCIEEC) and the Wholesale and Retail Sector Education and Training Authority (W&RSETA), CJC is recruiting 10 students to participate in a 12-month international skills development and internship programme.

This life-changing initiative forms part of a broader agreement between CCIEEC and W&RSETA, aiming to provide 50 South African TVET graduates from across the country the opportunity to learn in China.

The programme focuses on developing skills in e-commerce and online business, which are essential in today’s digital economy. Strictly for CJC students, this opportunity could mark the beginning of a career that spans beyond borders.

According to the college, only 10 learners will be selected for this round. The programme is open exclusively to CJC students who meet the following criteria:

• Must be South African citizens under the age of 35

• Hold a recognised TVET diploma

• Demonstrate a strong interest in online business and e-commerce

• Have no criminal record

• Be medically fit as per the Chinese skills programme requirements (free from HIV, TB, and STI)

• Be proficient in English

Applicants must also submit a Curriculum Vitae, a certified copy of their Identity Document, and a certified copy of their diploma.

The targeted fields of study for the internship include:

1. Human Resources
2. Business Management
3. Financial Management
4. Marketing Management

This international training and internship programme is designed to equip South African youth with valuable workplace skills in an international setting.

Participants will benefit not only from technical knowledge but also from cultural exchange and global networking opportunities, boosting their employability and entrepreneurial potential upon returning home.

CJC has emphasised the importance of using this chance to advance both personal and national development goals.

By fostering young professionals who are globally competent and digitally skilled, this initiative aligns with South Africa’s broader vision of economic transformation through youth empowerment.

Interested CJC students are encouraged to apply before the closing date of 25 June 2025.
