NKOKA is a Xitsonga word meaning Quality.
At NKOKA we pride ourselves with the quality of electronics technicians who have passed through the doors of our training centre. Our company was founded in 2004, and we currently operate as a Close Corporation.
We have three operating members who are responsible for the day to day running of our company and whom you will meet soon.
Values
- Listening to the needs of our clients.
- Flexibility.
- Innovation
- Continuous learning and imparting knowledge.
Our Business Model
During April- May as well as August- September of every year we open our application system. All students at the various Universities of Technology across the country who are studying towards a National Diploma: Electrical Engineering (Light Current) who are busy with their S4 level are invited to apply.
NKOKA will receive and process all the applications. A visit is then made to all the Universities of Technology in the far outlying areas such as Durban University of Technology, Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University, Central University of Technology and, on occasion Cape Peninsula University of Technology to conduct selection tests . All the students who have applied from the “local” Universities of Technology such as Tshwane, Johannesburg and Vaal visit NKOKA Training for their selection tests.
Battery of Selection Tests
We use the following batteries of Selection tools to select the best students for training:
- Electronics Test (Students must obtain a mark of at least 50% in this test)
- Situation Specific Evaluation Expert (SPEEX). This test is used to measure potential
- Psychological Disk administered by a registered Psychologist. This assessment is used, and I hope you will pardon me for using this pun, to check that their heads are screwed the right places
- Panel interview. This tool is used to assess the passion which the students have vor their chosen careers. Our clients are always invited to participate to bring specific industry cultures into the process
