Capacity Building & Skills Training

RMS plans to do this initially, by instituting a student-mentorship program with the relevant institutions within the Cape Town area. It is hoped that with the growth of RMS, at least one selected HDI person contracted during the mentorship program can be fully employed. RMS also participates in joint ventures and partnerships with HDI owned companies.
