EC Housing Department to Train Unemployed Graduates

The Eastern Cape housing department has announced that unemployed graduates will soon be trained to assist the province’s rural communities on how to access government funds for housing.

Ddepartment spokesperson, Lwandile Sicwetsha says the move follows the department’s launch of a R3.6 million “housing education consumer” project aimed at helping communities gain access to subsidy programmes.

The programme will also create employment opportunities for 40 unemployed graduates who studied social sciences, development studies, sociology, social work and administration, said Sicwetsha.
