About Company

For over three decades, JET has worked with the governmental and public sectors, civil society organisations, local and international development agencies, and educational institutions. JET has invested in improving the quality of education and the overall relationship between education, skills development and the world of work.

In response to the constantly changing ecosystem, JET has evolved into an "(dis)intermediary organisation", able to manage the implementation and evaluation of education interventions, both locally and internationally, particularly on the African continent. We aim to be Africa's leading educational think-do tank to positively impact education policy and implementation in South Africa and Africa through rethinking current education systems and engaging in evidence-based research. The organisation is driven by four core values: Championing Social Justice in Education and being People-Centred, Knowledge-Driven and Innovative. "Think Education. Think JET" was adopted as our new slogan, transitioning from 'Transformation through Knowledge".

The services JET offers form an integrated value chain, representing the kinds of services that we provide. We do research which informs implementation, and we monitor and evaluate implementation, which feeds back into the knowledge base. This synergy among research, implementation and evaluation, which JET strives to achieve advances the development of knowledge, and in turn may lead to the modification of the existing intervention models and the building of new ones.
