About The Organization
The Transport Education Training Authority (TETA) is a South African public training authority that helps develop skills in the transport industry. TETA supports education and training for careers in areas like road, rail, aviation, maritime, freight and logistics. It works with schools, colleges, universities and employers to make sure that young people can get the skills needed for jobs in the transport sector. TETA also offers bursaries to help learners and students pay for their studies. [Transport Education Training Authority]
