EPWP and ways of improving identified shortfalls and/or failures in the
North West Office. It highlights problems of the current skills development
by delineating the weaknesses and pitfalls. The relevant literature has l
been visited and has served as a primary data that adds value to the
dissertation. Collation of the relevant data is followed by a discussion of
the employee perception of the impact of skills development
implementation. The relative lack of research of impact skill development
is the primary impetus of this study. The sample was drawn from The
Department of Public Works, Roads and Transport in the North West
Province office employees who were cooperative in the execution of the
study. As a result of this, the research on the subject has moved beyond
the limited confines of skills development to focus more on the impact of
the skills development. Skills development is focused on standardisation
and synchronisation of information as a result of improved organisational
efficiency, but unfortunately problems with skills development can create
challenges and dissatisfaction among the end users, resulting in failure to
deliver the anticipated benefits. The findings of this study revealed that
there is deficiency The Department's mandate with regard to Expanded
Public Works Programme will ensure that the delivery of accessible
services through integrated socially developmental and empowering
processes can improve the quality of life of communities within the
