The CCAP is an initiative by the Bureau for Educational and Cultural Affairs via implementing partners Santa Fe Community College and Florida State University. The CCAP with South Africa will be a six-week program of study for South African Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) college and Community Education and Training (CET) college principals or managers. Senior officials from the Department of Higher Education and Training (DHET) will also be attending. The program will take place in October – November 2019. A pre-departure orientation will be held in August 2019 and required activities will include: • Facilitating travel logistics and other related expenses of approximately 20 South African delegates including domestic travel related to passports, visas and pre-departure orientation (PDO). • Logistics and related expenses for a one-day PDO in Gauteng (Pretoria or Johannesburg) including venue selection; flight and ground transport bookings; conference facilities booking; overnight accommodation and meals for delegates; and payment to vendors. • Domestic logistics and related expenses for 20 delegates to travel to the U.S. including travel allowance, transportation from home city to departure city, and hotel and meals in departure city if needed.
