As the custodian for skills planning, CATHSSETA conducts research to identify skills imbalances in the Gaming and Lotteries industry. This information enables CATHSSETA to make informed decisions and investments on skills planning in the industry. Therefore, a critical element in the skills planning mix is the identification of skills shortages. Hence, this study identifies skills shortages in the Gaming and Lotteries industry. The research methodology for this study comprises 3 steps: Engagements with CATHSSETA to generate a list of occupations. These occupations included generic occupations such as general manager and office manager, as well as industry-specific occupations such as croupier, bookmakers and so on. Conduct an online survey of stakeholders to determine if occupations on the list are experiencing a shortage and reasons thereof. Host a workshop with industry participants to discuss survey findings. The list of occupations obtained from CATHSSETA formed the basis of the survey questionnaire wherein industry respondents were prompted to identify which occupations were in shortage supply currently and possibly in the future.
