What We Do

The Why Corp

Our Offering

merSETA Accredited Training

We at The Why Corp are committed to closing the gap in promoting much needed 4th Industrial Revolution (4IR) skills amongst South Africans, especially the youth. 3D printing is one of the key exponential technologies that reduce our country’s dependency on imports by making local products in our communities. In addition, we can use 3D printing to solve our uniquely South African problems and grow our expertise in 3D printing, design and materials. By bringing 3D printing into our local businesses and communities we can drive new revenue streams and equip our people with much needed skills for the future.

That is why we provide NQF level 3 accredited training for companies and communities that wish to upskill their people with additive manufacturing and 4IR know-how and abilities. Our learnership programmes can be tailor made to your needs and your company can get further benefit in terms of SETA grants, tax rebates and B-BBEE points for skills development. However, should you already have learnership programmes in place, our 3D printing training can be easily integrated.

In addition, your employees or beneficiaries get access to industrial grade 3D printers which are included in our training programmes to kick-off the additive manufacturing lifecycle in your company.

3D Printer Sales

Once you are comfortable with the proposed solution and business case we can assist you in identifying the right partners in the industry and / or acquiring the correct 3D printing technology that should be deployed in your business.

We can offer financing options that suit your business needs and guide you in the 3D printing journey further.
