Government publishes the top 100 jobs in demand: Is your skill on it?

In an eye-opening statement published by the Government Gazette last month, 100 top skills were revealed as the most in demand in South Africa, and you should be aspiring to accomplish one of these skills.

Yes, our country needs you to acquire and develop your skills to contribute to our fast-changing and growing educational economy.

The Department of Higher Education (DHET) has thus defined these skills in the form of the National Scarce Skills List, which provides you with the top 100 skills that are considered to be in short supply .

In addition to the traditional fields such as engineering and medical - the government's citing states that information technology, project management, charted accountancy, artisans, millwrights and geology among others, is on the Top job skills list that are required.

This alone should give you an indication as to whether you have chosen the correct career path. However, should you find yourself juggling full-time employment and family responsibilities, or in a field that does not make the Top 100 list, part-time study is the perfect fit.
