Assessing participation of small fishing companies in the Transport Education Training Authority (TETA): identifying fault lines and potential responses to increase participation

>Magister Scientiae - MSc / The study focusses on the transport sector, where company participation level is
measured at approximately 20% of levy paying enterprises, and this level is mostly
based on relatively high levels of participation from large and medium sized
companies. The study explores the relationship between SETAs (sector education
training authorities) and the companies within the sectors they are mandated to
serve by researching the TETA maritime sub sector. The research focus is on small
companies and the focus is specifically on the low rate of participation of smaller
entities in the skills development landscape. The consequences of the lack of
participation are investigated and the study concludes that the SETAs ability to
effectively research its sector skills, as well as the SETAs ability to provide
effective skills planning in support of the national agenda, are both negatively
affected by current levels of poor participation. The research was conducted on
small fishing companies registered with the Transport Education and Training
Authority (TETA), in order to determine the reasons for low participation in the
government mandatory grant scheme. The research is survey based across
participating small companies and non-participating small companies.
