BEWARE OF THIS at International Hotel School
I app**** at international hotel school to do culinary arts apprenticeship, to gain necessary skills to run my restaurant, however after successfully completing my interview with a restaurant they assigned in Sandton it was agreed to place me in blue hills, I was then referred to youth at WORK to sign a contract. On signing the contract, I came to learn that I was placed with a hotel in Sandton, which was not the agreement and assigned an occupation in a department I did not apply for "food and beverage assistant" and this I did emphasize several times "I already have experience in this field," but they were persistent obliging i sign the contract, which I refused as they could not deliver in their promises, and it would not be fair for students to repay the R55,000 loan which is due to be deducted from their accounts month after month just to learn the basics. This issue was not handled accordingly, instead my name was removed from the list of candidates without any notice or formal written or verbal communication (which is unprofessional), and I fear for students who fall in this trap without clear knowledge of what they're getting into. As a qualified conduct Facilitator, Assessor, and Moderator, I know what is expected in learning, and I had high expectations from this institution, but very disappointed. Don't put your ink on any white paper without fully understanding what you're signing up for. If this was a learnership or a sponsored course I would slightly understand, but how then do you get training on what you did not apply for, and still be expected to pay? There are skills you can attain for free at restaurants and retail without paying significant amount of money, like the position I was appointed for. If I did not know better, I'd be fooled to think I'll train to be a chef, meanwhile you'd be setting up venues, serving drinks and meals or being some bar tender shaking egg wine and cutting lemons. I've begun reporting them to correct education bodies, because such conducts needs to be investigated. As a higher education institutions you do not get rid of students just because they're asking relevant questions, and not follow correct protocols on resolving disputes. This is unacceptable!

Unfair handling of "Apprenticeship Program."
I app**** at international hotel school to do culinary arts apprenticeship, to gain necesary skills to run my resturant, however after successfully completing my interview with a restrant in Sandton that agreed to place me in blue hills, I was then referred to youth @ work to sign a contract. On the contract, I was assigned an occupation in a department I dis not apply for "food and beverage assistant" which I did emphasize I already have experience in this field, and it would not be fair for me to repay the R55,000 loan which is due to be deducted from my account every month to learn the basica. This issue was handled accordingly and I feel for students who fall in this trap without clear knowledge of what they're getting into. As a qualified conduct Facilitator, Assessor, and Moderator, I know what is expected in learning, and I had high expectations from this institution, but very disappointed.

Warning To Fellow Investors
I have deposited money into this broker since 1 November 2023. The funds did not reflect immediately, and after weeks of communication with them they could not trace the funds which went through Zing Pay, and was told they have no unallocated funds at their disposal. I however managed to get the proof of payment, and after I sharing the POP with them, an agent told me the case has been resolved, but still the amount of R4000 which I deposited is not reflecting. They sent me proofs showing funds on their side however the platform and its transaction history is showing a different scenario. I've traded shares with this platform for over 10 years now, and have never experienced this issue before. It's almost 2 Months now and this is getting to my nerve.
