Graduate Placement opportunities, mostly in the form of Internships and Work Integrated
Learning(WIL), constitute a great deal of SAGDA activities.
Our analysis is that these programmes are effective in bridging the gap between formal
education and the world of work. They further provide graduates networking
opportunities with possibly future employers.

graduates networking opportunities with clients who could become employers or even being
absorbed at the very companies where they do their internship.

Profession
“SAGDA seems to be a great organization that really aims to help graduates find their feet in the working environment. Applying for the graduate program was a swift process and I was safeguarded by the person of contact through the process which made it easier. My appointment had a little bit of running around which I kind of enjoyed. The host company I am working for is great and I am well taken care of. I work with a really great team who always do their best which makes me always want to do better. The only challenge I experienced during my placement was the change of host company which had changed some logistical plans I had already made which was not a big deal. The people from SAGDA which I have met and spoken to seem to be nice people who really love their jobs. They are always a great help when I need them. This kind of reflects what SAGDA is and is about as an organization.”
