SECTOR 4 South Africa has a number of Sector Education and Training Authorities (Setas) in place, with the one responsible for media having been plagued by financial and administrative problems over the past few years. Setas are financed by a National Skills Levy obtained from the industry which in turn can claim expenses from this fund for skills programmes and training towards qualifications. These monies are also being used to fund short courses for working journalists at training institutions, such as the IAJ as well as a number of online courses.
