Red & Yellow partners with Accenture to boost youth employability

24 February 2025 – Red & Yellow Creative School of Business has partnered with Accenture to tackle youth unemployment in the Western Cape through targeted skills development initiatives. By equipping young individuals with critical workforce skills, this collaboration aims to create sustainable employment opportunities, support economic growth, and empower the next generation of leaders.

As part of this commitment, Red & Yellow welcomed MICT SETA and Accenture to campus last year to launch a National Certificate in Advertising specializing in Digital Marketing Leadership. Twenty unemployed learners joined the program, with Accenture providing laptops and covering monthly stipends for the entire year. Red & Yellow also secured five host companies, offering the potential for permanent employment upon completion.

Through impactful partnerships like this, Red & Yellow continues to strengthen employability and create real opportunities for young talent to thrive.
