Many young people living with disabilities often struggle to find opportunities that respect their abilities and help them grow. Universal Healthcare is opening a door that many have been waiting for — a fully structured learnership where you can learn new skills, gain workplace experience, and earn a recognised qualification while being supported in a professional environment.
This programme is far more than classroom learning. It places you inside one of South Africa’s respected healthcare organisations, where you get to learn practical, real-life skills that matter in the workplace. It is one of the few programmes designed specifically for unemployed youth living with disabilities, making it a rare and valuable opportunity.
Universal Healthcare is one of the country’s leading integrated healthcare companies, serving more than 10 million South Africans through various services. Their work covers medical scheme administration, managed care, corporate wellness, digital health platforms, insurance solutions, and occupational health services.
Because of their wide range of services, the company offers a rich learning environment for learners. Those who join the programme are placed in departments where their strengths and interests can shine. Whether you enjoy helping people, handling computer tasks, solving problems, or working with information, Universal Healthcare has a space where you can develop at your own pace.
The company believes strongly in empowerment and aims to give young people the chance to build sustainable careers in the healthcare sector. This makes the learnership not just a training programme, but a stepping stone into a growing industry.
Universal Healthcare wants individuals who are willing to learn and ready to take on responsibility. They understand that not everyone starts with experience, so they look for the right attitude more than anything else.
If you naturally enjoy helping people, solving problems, or working in an organised environment, you may be a strong fit for this programme.
