Sponsorship for the 2024 academic year will be awarded to one or more promising young candidates interested in pursuing a career in the ISP (Internet Service Provider) sector. Sponsorship is available for not only universities, TVET and technical colleges, but also any institution providing any type of accredited ICT training or sector specific courses where there is an identified shortage of skills in South Africa.
This ISPA Inspires skills development project by ISPA’s Social Development Working Group is now entering its fourth year, and applications for sponsorship of enthusiastic future ICT professionals during their 2024 academic year are now open.
“ISPA believes in creating a strong foundation through the development of our young people within the ICT sector. And the ISPA Inspires educational sponsorship is an opportunity for ISPA to support both the students who apply, and its members’ says Aurora Vani, Chairperson of ISPA’s Social Development Working Group.

- South African Citizens
- Individuals need to be 35 years of ageold or younger
