The Poslec SETA (Police, Private Security,
Legal, Correctional Services and Justice
Sector Education and Training Authority)
and DIDTETA (Diplomacy, Intelligence,
Defence and Trade Education and Training
Authority) have amalgamated and a new
SETA, called SASSETA (Safety and Security
SETA), was formed on 1 July 2005. The
board of SASSETA, as a new organisation,
felt it necessary to define the common
strategy for new organisation. This report
summarises the outcome of a strategic
planning workshop held by the SASSETA
Board in August 2005 aimed at crafting
a corporate strategy for the organisation.
The Poslec SETA was one of 25 SETAs
established on 20 March 2000 in terms
of section 9(1) of the Skills Development
Act (Act 97 of 1998). Their mandate was
to facilitate and promote skills development
across the South African economy to elevate
the country’s competitiveness and
productivity and to redress the skills
and education inequalities of the past.
The Poslec vision was to be a skills
development partner of choice for a just
society, while their mission was to build
a world-class platform of learning in
the sector. To achieve its vision and
mission, Poslec SETA would implement,
in partnership with clients, innovative
solutions to skills needs, using appropriate
technology in an adaptive, flexible manner.
The vision of DIDTETA was to promote
and expand skills development in its
sector, with the focus on excellence,
multi-skilling and lifelong learning.
The DIDTETA mission enabled it to act
as an effective and efficient Skills
Development agency operating within the
framework of the National Skills Development
Strategy; to lend strategic focus to
the Sector Skills Plan (SSP) in the promotion
of wealth and security; to guarantee
a qualitative and dynamic process of
learning and acquisition of skills for
all learners within the sector, in compliance
with national standards contained in
the South African Qualification Authority
Act, 1995 and the Regulations, 1998.
