Getting your matric doesn’t guarantee a degree, and a degree doesn’t even guarantee a job anymore. In South Africa’s high youth unemployment landscape, you need a career you can count on for job security and consistent income as you or your child moves into the next stage of adulthood. All of that is possible with an Artisan Trade Qualification.

As part of a growth and legacy strategy, Hi-Tech Pressure Engineering has introduced an educational route for school leavers, targeting boys matriculating from Durban schools. We want to train and enrich young lives, making this a great opportunity for anyone who is struggling to define their career direction and a great option to consider for parents worried about the future. What does a tradesman do? Hi-Tech Pressure Engineering is a well-established engineering firm, that services the petrochemical, oil & gas, pulp & paper, power, mining, effluent, and sugar industries. We design and manufacture code compliant pressure equipment and related plant systems. What does that actually mean for you? It all comes down to cutting heavy metal things, a light show of sparks, rolling / bending heavy steel things, welding the metal together, which comes together to give you a dirty, hot, noisy, and satisfying job experience.
