In short
The Furniture Technology Centre Trust (Furntech) was established in 2000 through an agreement between the South African Department of Trade and Industry and the Swedish development agency Sida, and combines business incubation with skills development for the furniture and wood products sector. It is registered as a private further education and training college and accredited by the FP&M SETA, and offers skills programmes, short courses and learnerships towards the National Certificate in Furniture Making at NQF levels 2 and 3. Programmes cover wood machining, cabinet making, upholstery and wood finishing, as well as special courses such as wooden windows and doors. Its national office is in Paarden Eiland, Cape Town, with further centres in Nyanga, White River, Umzimkhulu, Johannesburg (Roodepoort), Mthatha and KwaMashu.
