Redefine Learnership 2027: Matric Alone Is Not Enough is a learnership offered by Redefine in Gauteng. Applications close on 26 Oct 2026.

Who can apply

  • Your Matric certificate alone is not enough for the Redefine Learnership 2027: you also need an undergraduate diploma or degree. The NQF Level 4 outcome does not remove that entry requirement. Check your qualification and 2027 availability before preparing documents for the 26 October deadline.
  • Redefine lists a one-year contract, a competitive stipend and a Further Education and Training Certificate in Business Administration at NQF Level 4. The stipend amount is not stated.
  • If you are searching for Business Administration NQF Level 4 training, keep the graduate entry requirement in mind. This opportunity combines that qualification with workplace experience and mentoring in the property industry.
  • Check your likely transport and accommodation costs before accepting an offer. Johannesburg residence is required, so the eventual stipend amount matters to your plans for the year.

Documents you will need

  • Updated CV.
  • Certified South African ID copy.
  • Certified qualification copies.
  • Motivation letter for this programme.
  • Prepare both your Matric and diploma or degree records to support the two education requirements. Open each scan and check that your name, qualification details and certification marks are readable.
  • In your motivation, connect your qualification to a specific interest in property management or one of Redefine’s support functions.
  • For example, a finance graduate could explain how a coursework project developed accuracy and teamwork, then describe what they want to learn in a workplace.
  • Use examples you can explain honestly. A short, specific account of your own work gives the reader more useful evidence than broad claims about being hardworking.

Full details

Your Matric certificate alone is not enough for the Redefine Learnership 2027: you also need an undergraduate diploma or degree. The NQF Level 4 outcome does not remove that entry requirement. Check your qualification and 2027 availability before preparing documents for the 26 October deadline.

There is another important filter: you must have no tertiary studies or formal employment planned for 2027, and you must never have completed a learnership. These conditions matter as much as your academic documents.

What should you know before you start?

Do you meet every Redefine Learnership 2027 entry rule?

Redefine requires you to meet all eight conditions. Use this checklist before spending time on your motivation letter:

  • South African citizenship.
  • Age 18 - 25.
  • Completed Grade 12.
  • Undergraduate diploma or degree.
  • No tertiary studies or formal employment planned for 2027.
  • No previous completed learnerships.
  • Willingness to live in Johannesburg throughout the programme.
  • No criminal record.

The NQF Level 4 certificate is the programme outcome; the diploma or degree is an entry requirement. Reading those two details together prevents the mistake of treating this as a Matric-only opportunity.

The Johannesburg requirement also affects your planning. If you live elsewhere, consider whether you could move and remain there for the full year before committing to the process.

Which documents should you prepare first?

The Redefine Properties learnership checklist names four items. Prepare these together so that your CV, supporting records and motivation tell a consistent story:

Prepare both your Matric and diploma or degree records to support the two education requirements. Open each scan and check that your name, qualification details and certification marks are readable.

In your motivation, connect your qualification to a specific interest in property management or one of Redefine’s support functions.

For example, a finance graduate could explain how a coursework project developed accuracy and teamwork, then describe what they want to learn in a workplace.

Use examples you can explain honestly. A short, specific account of your own work gives the reader more useful evidence than broad claims about being hardworking.

How do you submit through Redefine’s online form?

Use the programme-specific form and finish before 26 October 2026. Set aside time to complete every section, including education and supporting documents.

  1. Open Redefine’s official 2027 learnership form and confirm the programme title.
  2. Complete your personal and contact details accurately.
  3. Upload your CV in the CV Upload section and add the requested supporting records under Additional Documents.
  4. Add your education details and complete the Experience Summary honestly, using relevant academic or project experience where appropriate.
  5. Complete the Cover Letter field and include the motivation letter requested in the checklist.
  6. Review your answers and documents, read the terms, and complete the final submission before the closing date.
  7. Keep any acknowledgement or confirmation reference the portal provides.

Do not mistake the form’s menu options for wider eligibility. It displays age bands beyond 18 - 25 and several nationality options, but the programme still requires South African citizenship and the stated 18 - 25 age range.

What work and training can you expect during the year?

This Johannesburg learnership combines structured workplace training with mentoring, workshops, seminars and practical assignments. You will work with colleagues and leaders while contributing to tasks and projects.

Functional areas listed include property management, facilities management, human resources, finance, legal and marketing, alongside other specialist areas. These examples can help you explain your career interests in your motivation.

  • Training alongside specialist professionals.
  • Workshops on business skills.
  • Assigned tasks and projects.
  • Teamwork and mentoring.

Describe the skills you want to build through real work. For someone with a completed qualification, the practical value is the chance to connect academic learning with workplace responsibilities.

What qualification and stipend will you receive?

Redefine lists a one-year contract, a competitive stipend and a Further Education and Training Certificate in Business Administration at NQF Level 4. The stipend amount is not stated.

If you are searching for Business Administration NQF Level 4 training, keep the graduate entry requirement in mind. This opportunity combines that qualification with workplace experience and mentoring in the property industry.

Check your likely transport and accommodation costs before accepting an offer. Johannesburg residence is required, so the eventual stipend amount matters to your plans for the year.

What questions might you still have before submitting?

Can I join with Matric only?

No. You need completed Grade 12 and a post-matric undergraduate diploma or degree. The NQF Level 4 qualification offered during the programme does not replace the diploma or degree entry requirement.

Can I join if I completed a learnership in another field?

The stated rule excludes anyone who has completed a previous learnership. It does not limit that restriction to property or business administration programmes.

Can I be considered if I currently live outside Gauteng?

The location condition is willingness to reside in Johannesburg for the programme’s duration. If you live in another province, you would need to be willing to move and meet every other entry condition.

Must my diploma or degree be in property studies?

The listing asks for an undergraduate diploma or degree without naming a compulsory study field. Use your motivation to explain how your qualification and interests connect with the workplace training described.

The Bottom Line

Check your qualification, previous learnership history and 2027 commitments first. If all eight conditions fit, prepare the certified records and motivation letter, then complete the online form before 26 October 2026.

If this programme does not match your circumstances, compare other learnership opportunities on SETA Careers and check each programme’s own entry rules.
