Pace Community College

Krugersdorp's demographic and economic character shapes what communities need from further education providers. Pace Community College sits within that context—serving learners who may have completed secondary school locally but need accessible, affordable pathways into vocational training, technical qualifications, or career-focused study without relocating to Johannesburg or Pretoria. The city's economy, with its mix of industrial, service, and small-business activity, creates demand for practical skills training that sits between school and university. A community college in Krugersdorp fills that gap, offering programmes aligned to what local employers actually hire for, while keeping learners anchored in their community during their training years. For school-leavers who are uncertain about a three-year degree, or who need to work while studying, proximity and relevance matter enormously.
