ANNUAL SUBMISSIONS - WORKPLACE SKILLS PLANS AND ANNUAL TRAINING REPORTS

For most SETAs, the deadline for submitting Workplace Skills Plans (WSPs) and Annual Training Reports (ATRs) is 30th April 2026. Where organisations must submit these reports to their relevant SETA, they should obtain points under the Skills Development element.

As Skills Development is an identified Priority Element, not submitting an ATR and WSP could trigger the Discounting Principle, which will impact an organisation’s overall score.

The information contained in the WSP and ATR must coincide with the data submitted to an organisation's B-BBEE Rating Agency at the time of their B-BBEE Verification.

Both the WSP and ATR are strategically designed documents that systematically identify any skills gaps, which align with the government's overall Skills Development Strategy. Both intend to track development, plot succession plans, and monitor the overall progress of organisations against set targets.

Technical Services are on hand to assist with the understanding of the above and how it is recognised.
