The process of strengthening SETA SSP development capacity was begun. Themain activities that were undertaken are that

a) Support visits were paid to SETAs prior to the development of the firstdraft to clarify DHET expectations of the SSP and to discuss issues raisedby each SETA in its continuous improvement plan (CIP)

b) Business and Labour were invited to participate in the SSP evaluationprocess outside of the SETA processes.

c) Feedback was given to SETAs on their draft SSPs prior to their submissionof their final draft in November.

d) A requirement that SETAs build their own research capacity was alsointroduced as a major requirement in SSP development and SSPimplementation measurement.

e) SSP development and implementation was made an integral part of theLabour Market Intelligence Project.

f) The grant regulations also introduced a new SSP development cycle thatwill result in Workplace Skills Plans and Annual Training Reports submittedin April (and not in June). This will give SETAs more time to analyse theWSP and ATR data for the development of the annual SSP update.
