This outcome underscores MICT SETA’s strong commitment to financial governance, transparency, and operational excellence.
The Media, Information and Communication Technologies Sector Education and Training Authority (MICT SETA) has achieved a significant milestone by securing an Unqualified Audit Opinion from the Auditor-General of South Africa (AGSA) for the 2024/2025 financial year. This outcome underscores MICT SETA’s strong commitment to financial governance, transparency, and operational excellence. The organization’s leadership highlighted that the opinion reflects sound financial stewardship, effective controls, and disciplined resource management.
The MICT SETA will present its financial and performance results at the Annual General Meeting (AGM) on Friday, 5 December 2025, at The Gallagher Convention Centre in Johannesburg. The AGM will showcase key achievements, including advancements in 4IR skills development, institutional capability, and sector partnerships. As the first SETA with a dedicated 4IR Division, MICT SETA has developed over 50 4IR-aligned qualifications, supported more than 600 Masters and PhD students through Research Chairs, and facilitated the creation of over 130 permanent jobs and multiple tech startups. Initiatives such as the TVET Lecturers Development: Digital Business Fundamentals programme, in partnership with WITS Business School, have further strengthened institutional capacity.
The AGM is open to all employee and employer organizations, as well as stakeholders in the Advertising, Film and Electronic Media, Electronics, Information Technology, and Telecommunications sub-sectors. Due to limited seating, in-person attendance is restricted to 250 delegates, with a maximum of two per organization. The AGM will also be live-streamed at 17:00 on MICT SETA’s social platforms to allow broader remote participation. Mandatory agenda items include the Auditor-General’s Report, the Annual Report on the Accounting Authority’s affairs, the Annual Financial Statements, the Annual Budget and Business Plan, and the Audit and Risk Committee Report. Stakeholders are encouraged to review the full Annual Report for the 2024/2025 financial year.
