We get so entangled in the everyday day stuff that we sometimes forget where we started, and how far we have come. Standing here today, at our first Open Day for 2024, it feels impossible that Knoop is 6 years old already, one year short of how long I owned Angel Projects for, before I sold it. But it also feels so much longer... like it's always been in my life... and I think it was, I just didn't know it. This is a scary year of growth . We have taken a leap of faith to get our own permanent training room and I have employed a training manager. We have a confirmed project that will cover a big portion of costs for most of this year, but with additional investments we have capacity to triple the impact on the lives of unemployed women. Through Knoop, and social enterprise Yem-b, we are able to offer access to markets to the top graduates, and offer investors opportunities in Seta Accredited Skills development, Enterprise development, Supplier development and SED. As you are coming to the end of the financial year, please be the hero in the story of our women, and keep us in mind for any last minute BEE spending! We have all the required paperwork in place for tax and verification. Drop me a mail on Programs@knoop.org.za for more information. #BEE #womenempowerment #supplierdevelopment #enterpreneurship #enterprisedevelopment

H-1B lottery results are arriving. Now what⁉️ As the results of the annual H-1B lottery come in, employers are sure to be met with their fair share of disappointment and uncertainty.
