On Saturday, July 18, 2026, the ITCA Bushbuckridge campus, in partnership with STANLIB and Vision Point, hosted a transformative workshop designed to equip students with essential financial management and entrepreneurship skills. Participants gained valuable insights into effective budgeting strategies and the critical importance of saving at least 40% of their monthly income to build financial security. The session underscored the necessity of selecting reputable banks such as ABSA, Standard Bank, Nedbank, or FNB, along with maintaining a strong credit score, which are pivotal for enhancing future career prospects and overall financial health. This event exemplifies the commitment of the three partners to empower students and strengthen local communities.
