This approach has received acclaim from government, welfare organisations, businesses and church groups. Irrespective of race, culture, gender or religion, POPUP helps the unemployed by offering 10 Seta Accredited Skills Programmes such as Computer/Office Administration, Home-based Care, Hospitality and Sewing.

POPUP trained 3 185 learners and placed 77% of them in employment over the past six and a half years and also invests in learners who want to start with their own business ventures. Together with the corporate world, learners develop during a year-long incubation phase taking place under the watchful eye of a facilitator who monitors quality and standards.

Placement Partner joined hands with POPUP by providing their Job Placement Programme with the popular Placement Partner recruitment system in order to assist with the paperless management of applicants and potential Employers alike. This leading recruitment software system will assist them in their initiative to place the candidates who have been equipped by their skills programme into contract and permanent positions.
