Tech training and job placement designed for South Africa’s next generation of developers.
01
Who We Are
In the world of tech, the talent is out there—but the path forward is unclear.
Graduates leave with theory, not practical skills. Jobs remain unfilled, not for lack of interest, but because of a mismatch between education and industry. Many aspiring developers are held back by outdated learning models, limited access, or no way into the industry at all.
Edufy bridges that gap.
We’re a training and placement program that turns junior tech talent into job-ready developers.
Our learners are taught in-demand tools, sharpen their skills on real-world projects, and grow through structured mentorship and soft skill development. Then we help them get hired—either through our internal consulting track or our partner network.
Why Edufy Exists
Limited Career Access
Many can’t afford quality training or don’t know how to break into the industry.
Skills Gap
Employers need job-ready talent with the right technical and soft skills.
Outdated Education
Most graduates finish with theory, but no hands-on experience or relevant tools.
Too Few Developers
Only 121,000 software developers in South Africa, while 10,000+ roles remain unfilled every year.
We are here to fix that
We go beyond theory—our curriculum is designed in partnership with industry to ensure immediate relevance. Edufy makes high-quality learning affordable and accessible, removing traditional barriers like high tuition fees and long timelines. But we don’t stop at education: we actively connect our learners to paid work opportunities through our partner network, helping them build real experience while they learn. This integrated approach ensures that every learner is job-ready, empowered, and earning.
02
How Edufy Solves this
We believe that talent shouldn’t be wasted due to lack of access, outdated training, or unclear career paths. Through practical, industry-aligned education and a strong placement network, we turn potential into opportunity. Our hands-on, supportive, and forward-thinking approach ensures that learners build real skills—and real careers. With Edufy, the journey from junior to job-ready isn’t just possible—it’s built in.
How We Bridge the Gap
Industry-Aligned Training
We don’t teach outdated theory—we train with what the industry actually uses. From Java and React to Cloud platforms and DevOps tools, Edufy’s curriculum is built around technologies companies are hiring for today. Learners graduate with skills that are immediately relevant and in demand.
Hands-On Projects
Real skills come from real practice. Edufy simulates working in a live development environment. Learners work on client-style projects, take part in code reviews, collaborate in agile teams, and get used to version control, testing, and deployment workflows—just like a real dev team.
Affordable Access
We believe cost shouldn’t be a barrier to a tech career. Our models offer monthly subscription plans, zero upfront fees, and sponsored placements for selected candidates. We partner with companies and organizations to ensure that more learners can access high-quality training—without taking on debt.
Career Support
We don’t just teach—we help you land the job. Edufy includes structured career readiness throughout the journey. From portfolio-building and LinkedIn polishing to mock interviews and recruiter matching, learners are guided every step of the way until they’re placed.
Built-in Soft Skills
Tech skills open the door, but soft skills keep you in the room. Our program includes communication training, team-based simulations, presentation practice, and conflict resolution strategies—because modern developers need more than just code to thrive in real teams.
Our Training & Placement Models
Internal Training-to-Consulting
A guided pathway from learning to earning. Learners undergo a 6-month intensive training program focused on in-demand technologies and real-world projects. After completing the program, they’re offered a 2-year contract through Edufy’s internal consulting team—gaining professional experience while working with top-tier companies.
‘Own Your Resource’ Model
Companies sponsor selected candidates and have the option to hire them directly after training. Edufy tailors the training to match the company’s tech stack and workflow—reducing onboarding time and improving long-term retention. It’s a direct pipeline from training to team integration.
Tech training for everyone—on your terms.
This upcoming model gives self-funded learners access to the Edufy curriculum through affordable monthly subscriptions. It’s flexible, scalable, and designed to help ambitious individuals upskill and enter the industry—regardless of their background or location.
03
For Companies
Smart hiring starts with smart training. Edufy partners with forward-thinking companies to deliver developer talent that’s already aligned with your tools, culture, and needs.
Build Your Junior Pipeline
Tap into a steady stream of junior developers who are trained with intention and ready to grow. Edufy provides companies with a sustainable way to scale their teams—no more scrambling for reliable junior talent or wasting time on underqualified candidates.
Avoid Recruitment Fees and Third-Party Contractors
Skip the high markups, long delays, and low retention of traditional hiring models. With Edufy, you get direct access to pre-vetted developers, eliminating the need for expensive recruiters or outsourced agencies.
Hire Developers Trained on Your Stack
We customize training to fit your tech stack, tools, and workflows. Whether it’s React, Node.js, Java, or DevOps pipelines—your future hires will be productive from day one, not stuck in ramp-up mode.
Reduce Onboarding Time with Job-Ready Talent
Our learners graduate with real-world project experience, agile practices, and professional soft skills. That means shorter onboarding, fewer growing pains, and faster contributions to your team’s goals.
04
Growth & Opportunities
The demand for skilled developers is growing faster than ever—yet the pipeline of job-ready talent still falls short. Edufy is uniquely positioned to meet this need. With a scalable training model, proven placement outcomes, and a clear product-market fit, we’re not just filling roles—we’re shaping the future of tech talent.

Before Edufy, I had the passion but lacked direction. Their program gave me real-world experience, mentorship, and confidence. Now I'm solving real problems, and actually feeling like a real developer, not just someone watching tutorials at 2x speed.

Junior Developer
Junior Developer
Edufy didn’t just teach the interns how to code. They learned how to adapt, grow, and tackle challenges beyond what they were directly taught. That mindset has made them more confident, resourceful, and capable of improving themselves as a developer.

Jordan O, CEO, Neslo Technologies
CEO, Neslo Technologies
At Neslo, we’ve always prided ourselves on hiring potential but without a structured system, recruitment felt like a “lucky packet.” Some hires would soar, others would stall, and identifying true talent early was often a guessing game. Our fast-paced consulting environment demanded more predictability, better onboarding, and faster growth from junior team members.
That’s where Edufy changed the game.
By integrating Edufy into our internship and early-career development programs, we replaced uncertainty with structure. Edufy allowed us to clearly define skill milestones, track progress in real-time, and give actionable feedback to our interns and junior developers. It empowered our team leads to mentors with intention and helped our interns understand exactly what was expected to grow within Neslo.
The results? Faster ramp-up times, stronger team cohesion, and a much higher conversion rate from intern to full-time employee with confidence. Edufy eliminated the guesswork and let us double down on what we do best: building great software with great people.”
- Jordan O, CEO, Neslo Technologies
2025
Why the Demand Is Urgent
10,000+ unfilled dev roles in SA
Despite a growing digital economy, thousands of developer roles remain vacant every year—simply because there aren’t enough candidates with the right skills. Companies are ready to hire; the talent pipeline just isn’t keeping up.
Only ~9,000 CS grads per year
Universities produce fewer graduates than there are open roles—and most leave with theoretical knowledge, not workplace-ready experience. This creates a bottleneck where companies can’t hire, and graduates can’t get jobs.
40.4% youth unemployment
Nearly half of young people in South Africa are unemployed. Meanwhile, the tech industry is full of opportunities—if only the training, access, and placement pathways existed. Edufy directly addresses this disconnect.
Global dev shortage
This isn’t just a South African problem. Around the world, companies are facing a growing shortage of skilled developers. Edufy’s scalable model can be adapted across markets, making it part of a global solution to a global crisis.
