Sobering facts
Finding a job in South Africa is virtually impossible if you are young, unskilled and inexperienced
If you’re still unsure about your field of study because you haven’t found the right career yet, you can’t study, or just don’t want to study … we have a unique and exciting option for you to consider.
But first, we need to give you a reality check by sharing some sobering facts about the current economic climate as you need to understand exactly how this impacts you as a school leaver looking to make a start in life.
As a matriculant, you’re about to face the biggest challenge of your life, and here’s why. The youth unemployment rate in South Africa is:
- 77% for all youth (expanded definition)
- 55% for youth who have passed matric/grade 12
- 31% for youth with a degree (graduates)
That tells you, finding a job in South Africa is virtually impossible if you are young, unskilled and inexperienced — even when you hold a degree.
While having a degree improves your chances of finding a job, higher education might very well be unaffordable to you. As shown by an Old Mutual study, you can expect to pay R192,600 on average in tuition fees alone to study for a three-year degree at a university in South Africa.
On top of that, more than 90% of first-year student applications are rejected by universities due to a shortage of spaces. So, even if you can afford the tuition fees you might not be able to get into a university.
On the other hand, if you did get in … is a degree still worth the money? Because South Africa’s job market is wrecked. Over 11.5 million people are now unemployed (under the expanded definition) due to the ongoing pandemic and lockdown.
Entrepreneurship
The #1 skill you need if you want to thrive in today’s uncertain economy
Strong academic skills are less relevant than ever. Instead, to reach the top you require curiosity, imagination, resilience, critical thinking and most importantly: ENTREPRENEURSHIP!
However, entrepreneurship is the critical life skill the schooling system neglected to teach you. And it’s the #1 skill you need to learn now if you want to thrive instead of just survive in today’s rapidly changing world.
At the School of Entrepreneurship, our definition of entrepreneurship is: “The ability to turn ideas into income through creating, building, and scaling a business.”
The good news is, entrepreneurship is a skill-set anyone can learn. But let's be real, entrepreneurship isn't easy.
Fortunately, every challenge you will face as a young, aspiring entrepreneur can be overcome. The secret is, you must learn entrepreneurship from the only people qualified to teach you about entrepreneurship … ENTREPRENEURS!
From the CEO
Succeed under the skillful guidance of accomplished entrepreneurs
Hello, my name is Leon Lategan and I'm the School of Entrepreneurship's Founder, CEO and Head Coach. I've been an entrepreneur for more than 20 years.
You might be shocked to learn that I'm a university dropout. After school, I went to study a Bachelor of Business Science specialising in marketing at UCT where I failed my third year and was asked to leave.
Ironically, today, I make a living from coaching and mentoring entrepreneurs on the subjects of business, sales and marketing.
I have trained over 17,000 entrepreneurs — from the solo-preneur to mega-preneur — in more than 20 cities around the world. My results-driven approach is proven effective by my 96.3% client success rate.
My story (plus those of of Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Steve Jobs, and Richard Branson among others) is PROOF that you don't need a degree or PhD to achieve success.
Coaches
We specialise in creating, building and scaling businesses and we can teach you
At the School of Entrepreneurship, we live and breathe entrepreneurship and will take the mystery out of creating, building and and scaling a business.
That means, under the guidance of your A-list coaching team, you don't have anything to worry about.

Entrepreneurship
Entrepreneurship isn't easy, but we'll be at your side all the way
Entrepreneurship is rewarding. Nevertheless, it takes hard work and sacrifice.
If you don't know how to set up a business properly and run it efficiently, being an entrepreneur can be risky. Especially, when you're launching your first venture.
We can't guarantee your success. But, we can teach you how to minimise your risk and succeed in spite of the hurdles in your way.
The world of an entrepreneur differs drastically from the world of an employee. Entrepreneurs play by a different set of rules while the mindset of an entrepreneur is the opposite of an employee's mindset.
Entrepreneurs are leaders while employees follow them.
Our coaches will be at your side guiding you all the way, grooming you until your are ready to step into the leadership role.
