A message from our FOUNDER
Dear Future Changemakers,
​
I am Lerreni Govender, the heart and soul behind Vision Capital Academy. As a woman deeply entrenched in the fabric of our society, my journey to establishing this company has been both personal and purpose-driven. The inception of Vision Capital Academy was sparked by a glaring discrepancy I observed within our industry: the learnership model, a powerful tool for empowerment and growth, was being diminished to mere financial transactions. This realisation struck a chord with me, prompting a reflection on my own path and the legacy I wished to create.
​
The foundation of Vision Capital Academy is built upon a vision far greater than profit margins or business metrics; it is rooted in a profound desire to ignite a transformative spark in the lives of others. I saw an urgent need to shift the narrative — to harness the true potential of learnerships not just as a means to an end, but as a journey towards discovering one's passion, purpose, and place in the world.
​
Our ethos at Vision Capital Academy goes beyond traditional education or skills development. We believe in the power of personal touch and bespoke interventions. It is this belief that drives us to tailor our programs meticulously, ensuring that each learner's experience is as unique as their dreams and aspirations. By doing so, we are not just providing knowledge or skills; we are unlocking doors to self-discovery, empowerment, and ultimately, a fulfilling life. The creation of this company is my personal calling to serve, inspire, and lead by example.
​
We are committed to equipping our youth, especially the unemployed, with opportunities that transcend the conventional. Our learnerships are designed to be a dual journey — one that leads to professional development and, more importantly, personal growth. Through Vision Capital Academy, we are enabling our youth to work, earn, and learn, but most crucially, to uncover their true purpose and calling.
​
This is more than just a business. It is a movement towards a more inclusive, empowered, and purpose-driven society. Together, with your support and our unwavering dedication, we are inching closer to realizing that vision.
​
Thank you for joining us on this remarkable journey.
