About Yolanda

Phone verified

I have extensive experience and a successful track record in Education, Training and Development Practices as well as administrative skills, with more than 20 years’ experience. I believe I possess the knowledge, skills, attitude, and qualifications as well as the vital experience necessary to make a very significant contribution to your organization. I am currently working as a consultant in the design and instructional development of training material and interventions for various Neighbourhood Watch Organisations. In my previous position as ETD Practitioner in the South African Police Service, I successfully researched, designed and developed numerous Training Interventions and courses within scope, budget and on time. It was part of each Developer’s task to ensure that all administration relating to budget, travel, and accommodation, as well as registration of Unit and/or Organisational Standards, be executed. I also managed the South African Police Services Training Plan to the value of +R80 million per annum working within the stringent frame of the Public Finance Management Act, Treasury Regulations and SAPS Organisational Instructions. I have completed Certificates from UCT in Commercial and Contract Law, Occupational Health and Safety and Start and Manage a Small Business. I am a firm believer in life-long learning and enjoy challenging myself regularly to study or acquire new knowledge, skills and broaden my expertise. I have excellent communication skills and am able to successfully develop both internal, external and international productive relationships on any level. I have extensive experience dealing with corporates and government entities and can effectively manage communication and coordination between diverse role players. I successfully supervised a team of thirteen administrative clerks. This included that quarterly performance assessments of each clerk were done on time. If needed training or other corrective measures were taken to ensure that the clerk knew and understand his/her KPI’s and possess the required knowledge, skills and attitude to perform their duties. I am now looking for a challenging new opportunity, one that will make the best use of my experience, expertise, work ethic and the strong desire to add value while encouraging continued professional growth. I have the tenacity and drive to always work unsupervised and under extreme pressure with limited resources. During my career, I had the opportunity to be exposed to various international agencies and have been commended for the manner in which I dealt with these organizations and role players.
