L.D academy is a nationally accredited training and education strategic business unit within the Limpopo Dairies (Pty) Ltd group of companies.
Our students are mainly from the northern parts of South Africa, Limpopo Province, with high unemployment, especially amongst the youth of the region. Most of them come from single parent households.
The Academy’s slogan “Ad astra per aspera”, through adversity to the stars, acknowledges these challenging circumstances whilst striving being a conduit on route to achieve and realising their dreams.
The drivers of our approach, Values, Skills, Knowledge and Outcomes are the guiding framework in our endeavour being a sound base from where they can start building their careers.
Our accredited certificate in Food and beverage handling process, National certificate in Milk & Cream handling and Storing as well as National certificate in Manufacturing Management, the latter at NQF 5 level, provides an opportunity to gain knowledge and mastering new skills, much needed in career development.
Peter Drucker said that the only thing we know about the future is that it is going to be different which is why we encourage independent thinking, entrepreneurial spirit and taking responsibility as context for our students’ thirteen-month training programme.
We are not clock watchers; we are builders…let’s make it happen!
