About ROANA
100% Female Black-Owned • QCTO & SETA Accredited
Since 2018 — Building futures through relevant, practical, accredited skills training
Our Story
Founded with Purpose in 2018
ROANA Training and Consulting was born from a deep frustration with the disconnect between traditional education and the real needs of South Africa’s job market.
We saw talented young people — especially from disadvantaged backgrounds — leaving formal education without the practical skills employers actually want. We decided to change that.
What We Stand For
As a proudly 100% female black-owned company, we are committed to:
- Closing the skills gap through intensive, hands-on learning
- Creating real pathways to employment and entrepreneurship
- Empowering women and youth in historically excluded communities
- Delivering nationally recognized, quality-assured training
