Looking for a real chance to break into the property market? The PPRA One Learner, One Property Practitioner Programme 2026 is opening up a 12‑month learnership that could put a real estate qualification right in your hands – and it’s closing soon.
What Is the Programme?
The Property Practitioners Regulatory Authority (PPRA), together with the Mpumalanga Department of Public Works, Roads and Transport and Services SETA, has launched a special learnership for previously disadvantaged youth and women. 200 places are available to people based in Mpumalanga. By the end of the year you’ll hold a recognised NQF Level 4 real‑estate certificate and be ready to sit the PPRA Professional Designation Examination (PDE 4). That means you can work as a Non‑Principal Property Practitioner.
Who Should Apply?
- Have a matric certificate or an equivalent qualification.
- Be a Previously Disadvantaged Individual (PDI).
- Feel strongly about stepping into real estate – especially if you’re a young person or a woman.
- Live in Mpumalanga – we will verify your address.
Many applicants worry about missing a requirement. From experience, most successful candidates double‑check that their ID and matric certificates are certified copies before submitting.
What You Gain
- Official real‑estate qualification (NQF Level 4).
- Preparation for the PPRA PDE 4 exam.
- Monthly stipend of R5 500.
- Hands‑on exposure to the property industry.
- Clear pathway into a stable career.
