Laptop Initiative: Closing the Digital Divide for Teachers

SADTU has long argued that educators need to be capacitated to handle the IT (information technology) revolution. So it is with joy that we can announce that the
Union is concluding an agreement with the Department of Education to subsidize the purchase of laptop computers by educators. The scheme will be rolled out progressively, starting with school principals. Meanwhile, SADTU is still negotiating with suppliers to ensure the best deal for the educators. We will keep you informed.

Warning:

Beware unscrupulous salespeople claiming to act for SADTU

We have received complaints from members who have received unsolicited phone calls from the following companies falsely claiming to be acting on behalf of SADTU:

• World Mobux
• Union-Linck
• Sisanda
• AIC (Algoa Insurance Company)
• Zwelonke Holdings
• Wisdom
• Union Assist
• The Unlimited Group
• Premier Growth Group
• Credit U
• Mobile U

These companies are not acting on behalf of SADTU, and members are strongly advised not to enter any agreement with them. If in any doubt about the legitimacy of any salesperson claiming to act for SADTU, contact the Union Office.
