Youth Rising: How Durban is Equipping the Next Generation for Work

In Durban, too many young people have the skill but not the strategy to land and keep meaningful employment. That’s where the SUCCESS LADDER Work Readiness Conference comes in. Run by the Support Services Sector Action Team, this gamified, high-impact three-day event gives youth more than just advice—it gives them confidence, tools, and workplace-ready skills.

Participants learn to build strong CVs, present themselves professionally, understand office etiquette, and strengthen their emotional intelligence. Industry experts lead each session, ensuring the advice is real, relevant, and actionable. More than a workshop, it’s a mindset shift—preparing youth to show up, stand out, and succeed.
