OPPORTUNITIES IN ACCOUNTING: INVITATION TO APPLY FOR THE THUTHUKA BURSARY
???
?
Thuthuka is a transformation initiative of the South African Institute of Chartered Accountants (SAICA) aimed at encouraging previously disadvantaged learners in schools to pursue a career in the Chartered Accountancy (CA) field. “Thuthuka" is a Zulu word which means “to develop" and it aims to transform South Africa's business leadership. Thuthuka consists of a number of education-related and community-based programmes. The bursary fund is aimed at increasing the number of African and Coloured students in this field of Financial Accounting and improving the pass rates by means of financial and other support.
Stellenbosch 中国体育彩票 is one of the Thuthuka accredited Universities. The Stellenbosch Thuthuka programme was launched in 2007 and grew to an established and well recognised programme with students studying at all levels from first year through to Honours. These BAccounting students receive comprehensive academic and non-academic support from the Stellenbosch Thuthuka programme. The students take part in various interactive life-skills and workplace readiness workshops. They are expected to take part in vacation work as well as in a community service project of their choice. The bursary package covers tuition, accommodation (including food) and textbooks.
