Courier & Delivery Driver Readiness

Food and parcel delivery is one of the fastest ways to start earning in South Africa — Mr D, Uber Eats, Bolt Food and courier networks like PostNet take on drivers every week. But the ones who last know the job before they start: how the pay really works after fuel, how to navigate and scan and get proof of delivery, how to handle the customer at the door for good ratings, and how to stay safe on SA roads. This course makes you ready. IMPORTANT: it is not a driving licence — you must already hold a valid South African driver's licence (and a PrDP where the vehicle or platform requires one) to drive for pay.

The Courier & Delivery Driver Readiness course is R99, done entirely on your phone in English and isiZulu, and gives you a certificate of competence you can verify online by QR code. It covers 6 modules and 0 short lessons, with a final assessment you must pass to earn the certificate.
