OTHER
African Enterprise is a Christian interdenominational organisation committed to outreach in Africa and involved in leadership development and reconciliation. As Training Director I assumed overall responsibility for four other departments: Bridge Building Encounters, Social Empowerment, Intern Programme and Child Feeding and Evangelism, besides running my own department viz.

I was integrally involved in the Durban rally that was crucial to the peaceful transition of power in South Africa in 1994.
Bible Education by Extension (BBE) is an American-Dutch organisation involved in providing basic theological education to people in developing countries. My responsibilities include the editing and preparation of writer and facilitator training material such that rural pastors could understand and progression theological studies.
Media in Education Trust (MIET). The Zikhulise (‘develop yourself”) Project (USAID funded) provided materials and training to teachers in poorly resourced schools in KwaZulu-Natal. Responsibilities included writing teacher guides and resource materials, and training departmental officials and teachers in the use of these.
Toyota Teach is a service organisation providing mainly African teachers with courses towards an Advanced Certificate in Education through the University of Natal, Durban. Responsibilities focus mainly on facilitating, advising and evaluating teacher performance in the classroom in the greater Durban area, specializing in technology. I was able to provide teachers with stimulating and helpful guidance which brought them to higher levels of professionalism.
AQA is an examination board operating mainly in the UK. As a Curriculum Advisor I was responsible for the marketing and support of curricula across the south-east corner of England. This entailed contact with numerous Heads, Deputy Heads, Heads of Departments and teachers of high schools and sixth form colleges.
