About Us
We're not here to bore you with another online course platform. Pro Training exists because we got tired of watching people sign up for courses, watch three videos, and ghost. So we built something different. Real instructors. Practical skills. Actual accountability. We've helped 847 professionals level up since 2016. They didn't just get certificates. They got jobs, promotions, and the confidence to tackle problems they couldn't touch before. That's what drives us every single day.
Over time, we’ve built a reputation for reliability, quality, and clear communication. We treat each project as a partnership and aim for outcomes that last.
Our Approach
Our approach combines proven methods with modern tools. We start with discovery, align on goals, plan clearly, and execute with quality checks at every step.
Meet Our Team
The people behind Pro Training
Thabo Mkhize
Founder & Chief Instructor
Started Pro Training after watching his sister skip three online courses in a row. Spent 13 years in software development before going all-in on education. Believes boredom is a form of disrespect.
Sarah Chen
Head of Curriculum
Former project manager turned education architect. Obsessed with breaking complex topics into digestible pieces. She designs every course to feel like you're learning from a smart friend, not a robot.
Mpilo Ndlela
Director of Student Success
Tracks every student outcome like his own kid was taking the course. Knows which learning patterns stick and which ones don't. Pushes instructors hard to make material resonate.
We’re a team that values ownership, clarity, and growth. We celebrate wins, learn fast, and keep client outcomes at the center.
Our Mission
Teach skills that matter. The ones employers actually want. We strip away the fluff and focus on what works. Our courses exist to move people forward — not to fill our pockets with tuition fees. Real outcomes. Real teachers. Real progress. That's the deal.
Our Vision
A world where knowledge isn't locked behind gatekeepers. Where a single mom in Bloemfontein can learn coding just as well as someone in Cape Town. We're building the platform that makes that real. No excuses. No barriers. Just results.
Our Core Values
The principles that guide everything we do
Brutal Honesty
We tell you straight. If a course won't help your career, we say so. No sugar coating. No overselling. You deserve the truth about what you're getting.
Sweat Equity
Learning requires work. We don't pretend otherwise. But we'll coach you through it. Struggle builds skill. That's not motivational nonsense—it's neuroscience.
Real Teachers
No automated lectures. No generic scripts. Your instructors are working professionals doing this work right now. They know what you'll actually face on day one of your new job.
Accessibility First
Geography shouldn't determine your opportunity. We keep prices reasonable. We work around your schedule. We provide what you need to succeed, not what's easiest for us to sell.
Our Story
Pro Training started in a cramped office on Church Street back in 2016. One instructor. Two courses. A pile of coffee cups. Within 18 months, we'd trained over 200 people. Demand exploded. We expanded the team, launched 31 new courses, and opened three additional training centers across the province. But we stayed stubborn about one thing: never sacrifice quality for scale. It's why our completion rates run 3x higher than industry average. We grew slower on purpose.
