01 — The promise

The right skills, delivered the right way, dismantle the barrier between a person and meaningful work.

Barrier Free Training Centre is an accredited skills-development provider. We combine structured theory with substantial hands-on workshop practice, so every learner can demonstrate real competence in a working environment — not merely pass an examination.

Working within the South African skills-development framework, we partner with government, SETAs, employers and communities to address skills shortages and advance socio-economic inclusion.
