Welcome to the Orbit TVET College News and Updates page for 2025. Studying at Orbit TVET College, like any educational institution, comes with its own set of advantages and considerations. Whether or not it’s the right choice for you depends on your personal goals, interests, and circumstances.

Public TVET Colleges form part of the Department of Higher Education & Training (DHET) together with public Universities, National Institutes for Higher Education, Trade Testing Centres, Skills Development Institute and Sector Education and Training Authorities (SETAs). ORBIT College is one of 3 public TVET Colleges in the North West Province. The mandate of public TVET Colleges is to steadily increase the number of students enrolled and trained in priority and critical skills areas, putting TVET Colleges at the centre of skills development and more specifically the artisan development agenda of South Africa. This relates to equipping the unemployed, (specifically youth who are Not in Education, not in Employment and Training i.e. NEETs) with the requisite skills base to overcome poverty and the economic challenge of unemployment. The specific focus of public TVET Colleges is to address the skills shortages in SA, by offering relevant and responsive vocational and occupational programmes. ORBIT College has a Central Office in Rustenburg with 3 learning delivery sites: Rustenburg Campus, Brits Campus, and Mankwe Campus.
