Expert Skills Courses is a skills training institute in Fordsburg, Johannesburg. We teach the practical, job-focused skills that employers and clients are actually paying for, delivered online to students in South Africa and worldwide.

Who we are

We are a Johannesburg-based institute offering six skills programmes, all delivered online. Our students range from school leavers looking for a first job, to working adults retraining into digital work, to entrepreneurs building a business of their own.

Every course is available in three formats — 3 months, 6 months or 12 months. It is the same syllabus and the same certificate. The difference is pace, so you can go intensive if you are free to study full time, or spread it out if you are working.

What makes us different

We do not teach theory for the sake of it. Every module ends with something you have actually made — a campaign you have run, a video you have cut, a design you have delivered, a listing you have written. That body of work is what gets you hired, far more than a certificate on its own.

Our courses are updated as the tools change. That matters most in AI and digital marketing, where a syllabus written two years ago is already out of date.

Where to find us

Our office is at 20 Clare Road, Fordsburg, Johannesburg, South Africa, open Monday to Friday from 09:00 to 17:00 for enquiries and enrolment. All teaching happens online, so you can study from anywhere — whether you are in Johannesburg, elsewhere in South Africa, or another country entirely.
