Our Aims
We work on creating 1,000 educational and career opportunities for South African youth every year.
Young people from different backgrounds have a huge impact on us and all our activities. They highlight those parts of the society that are broken, so we can help them in all possible ways to regain hope and flourish in life.
What we do
We attract Skills Development and CSI Funding which we mobilise through various programs with worthy recipients, in line with the LBOC's commitment to the support and growth of SMEs and youth through tertiary education in South Africa.
Holistic Learner Development
Holistic Learner Development (HLD) is a learning methodology that seeks to create an ecosystem of excellence around the learner through targeted interventions that focus on academic, living standards, and psychosocial support.
ACADEMIC
Tutoring
Compulsory tutoring is provided to undergraduate learners three times a week by Honours, Masters, and Ph.D. students in each faculty relevant to the students’ field of study.
LIVING STANDARDS
Accommodation
Student accommodation is provided for all students inducted into the LBOC Education Bursary Programme at accredited accommodation.
Food
Students receive an allocated amount for their meals, either at the university residence or designated partners accredited by the universities.
