WSP & ATR support for South African employers who want to stay compliant and recover value from skills development.
We help businesses prepare, structure, and submit Workplace Skills Plans (WSPs) and Annual Training Reports (ATRs) properly. Whether you want a DIY guide, templates, or full support, we make the process clearer and less stressful.
What is a WSP?
A Workplace Skills Plan (WSP) is a structured training plan that helps an employer identify skills needs and set out how staff development will be handled in the coming period. It is usually linked to an ATR (Annual Training Report), which records the training already completed.
In simple terms, the ATR looks backward, and the WSP looks forward. Together, they help the employer report training activity, plan future training, and structure workplace skills development in a more professional way.
Planning
The WSP helps a business identify what training staff actually need.
Reporting
The ATR helps the employer show what training has already been done.
Compliance
Proper WSP/ATR preparation supports skills development compliance and better planning.

FAQs
Do all employers need the same level of WSP support?
No. The level of support usually depends on staff size, internal systems, training complexity, and how confident the employer is with the process.
Can I do WSP and ATR internally?
Yes. That’s exactly why the DIY Guide and Template Pack exist. They help internal staff structure the process more professionally.
What documents do I usually need?
Usually staff details, job titles, training records, training costs, organisational structure information, and planning inputs for future development needs.
Can WSP work support B-BBEE planning too?
Yes. Skills development planning and reporting often overlap with broader B-BBEE skills development strategy.
Are these prices fixed by law?
No. Service pricing is market-based. Consultant fees vary depending on company size, sector, headcount, and complexity.
