Xhuma Talent helps organisations run bursary and scholarship programmes without the spreadsheets, email chains and manual reporting that usually come with them. Funders can manage the whole programme in one place: receiving and reviewing applications, selecting candidates, tracking funding, and supporting students throughout their studies.
The platform is built for companies that fund students as part of their skills development, transformation or community commitments, including organisations in mining, energy and renewable energy. [Programme managers get clear reporting on spend, student progress and outcomes, making it easier to show results to leadership and provide evidence for B-BBEE verification.]
Unlike general grant or application software, Xhuma Talent is designed around the full bursary lifecycle, not just the application stage. [Students receive ongoing support to help them stay on track and complete their qualifications, which protects the funder's investment and improves retention.]
Xhuma Talent suits corporates, trusts and foundations that want a structured, transparent way to run bursary programmes, whether they fund a handful of students or several hundred.
