Our Story
Built in Pretoria, For Working People

DT Academy of Mining & Security Training operates from Rentbel Towers, Office 107, just off Bureau Lane and a short walk from Church Square in Pretoria Central. We work with people who need a qualification that leads somewhere fast — not a long, expensive detour from earning a living.

Our course offering spans four practical training fields: mining and earthmoving machinery, lifting machinery, security services, and occupational health & safety. Every course is designed around one question — will this skill get someone hired? That focus shapes our classrooms, our instructors, and our support after graduation.

Because many of our students travel from outside Pretoria, we run classes on weekends and provide free accommodation for the duration of training, so a course doesn't require giving up a job or a week's wages to attend. Therefore, we deliver high-quality, accredited training through experienced facilitators, helping our learners achieve compliance, enhance their careers, and build confidence in the workplace. Our commitment is to excellence, professionalism, and empowering success through education.

What Drives Us
Mission & Vision
Our Mission
To equip every learner — regardless of background — with practical, accredited skills in mining, lifting, security and health & safety, and to stand by them with job assistance until that training becomes employment.
Our Vision
A South Africa where a short, accessible course is a genuine bridge into stable, skilled work — not a certificate that sits in a drawer.
Our Values
What Sets Us Apart
The principles that shape how every course is taught and every student is supported.
Practical-First Training
Instruction is hands-on from day one, using real equipment and real-world scenarios, not just theory.
Accessible Scheduling
Weekend classes and short intensive formats mean training doesn't cost you your current income.
Accredited & Compliant
Registered with PSIRA and accredited through the QCTO, so every certificate is recognised nationally.
Placement Support
We actively assist graduates in connecting with employers after they complete their qualification.
Community-Minded
Free accommodation for out-of-town students reflects our belief that distance shouldn't limit opportunity.
Safety-First Culture
Every operator and security course is taught with the same discipline expected on a real job site.
What We Teach
Four Training Fields, One Standard
