AB  - The aim of this study was to investigate how a responsive TVET (Technical and&#xd;
Vocational Education and Training) college’s curriculum can serve as a marketing tool,&#xd;
to attract learners to technical and vocational education and training in Limpopo&#xd;
Province. The study adopted a qualitative research approach. The researcher used&#xd;
individual interviews to collect data from the participants. Document analysis was used&#xd;
and an observation schedule was developed and used to collect the study data. The&#xd;
population of the study comprised of all Department of Higher Education and Training&#xd;
TVET officials, principals of TVET colleges, TVET marketing managers, and learner&#xd;
support officers in Limpopo Province. Purposive sampling used to select the participants&#xd;
of the study. The sample comprised of 1 Department of Higher Education and Training&#xd;
TVET official, 3 principals of TVET Colleges, 3 TVET marketing managers, and 3&#xd;
learner support officers. Thematic analysis was used to analyze the data collected.&#xd;
The study showed that learners migrate to other provinces because some of the TVET&#xd;
Colleges offer the skills that do not meet the requirements of the business around their&#xd;
community’s needs. Lecturers teaching at the colleges were also found to be&#xd;
inadequately qualified. As a result, learners migrate to other provinces, hoping there&#xd;
would be job opportunities after completing their studies. TVET Colleges also do not&#xd;
market themselves sufficiently, for learners to understand their programs.&#xd;
Lecturers also need to have a teaching qualification and complete a trade test -for those&#xd;
teaching engineering courses. In addition, the college budget for marketing should be&#xd;
adequate. Furthermore, high school principals should provide brochures on a yearly&#xd;
basis, to assist learners at their respective schools. TVET Colleges should also&#xd;
address local needs. Finally, TVET Colleges should collaborate with businesses to get&#xd;
financial assistance.&#xd;
