About the college

Ehlanzeni TVET College falls under Ehlanzeni District Municipality, constituted of Mbombela, Bushbuckridge, Thaba Chweu and Nkomazi Local Municipalities. The College is made up of eight sites: seven campuses and a central office.

The Central Office, also referred to as the Corporate Centre, is situated at 29 Bell Street, Nelspruit. This is at the centre of Nelspruit/Mbombela, the capital city of the Mpumalanga Province. Nelspruit is located on the Crocodile River and lies about 110 kilometres by road west of the Mozambique Lebombo border, 330 kilometres east of Johannesburg, and about 82km and 106km north of the Mananga and Matsamo border gates to the Kingdom of Eswatini.

Ehlanzeni offers a range of technical and vocational training programmes within its qualification mix. The programmes can best be classified into two main categories within the Post School Education and Training system: the Ministerial Programmes and the Occupational Programmes. The Ministerial Programmes cover the Report 191 programmes (popularly known as Nated programmes) and the National Certificate Vocational (NCV) programmes. All the College's programmes are designed to enhance employment of any nature, be it formal employment or self-employment, as they all integrate theory and practice.
