Cornerstone Performance Solutions

As we step into 2026, something shifts. Dr Indira Bhagaloo assumes the CEO role carrying forward a conviction we've held for 25 years: that education doesn't just inform, it transforms. When learning is designed with genuine care and scientific rigour, careers change. Lives change. Africa's future changes.

And we're not done yet.

Here's what we see: potential everywhere. We see it in every learner who's ready to master a profession, in every organisation building the teams the continent needs, and in partners who understand that better learning creates better outcomes. The opportunity isn't just to fill skills gaps but to unlock capabilities that already exist, waiting for the right learning experience to bring them forward.

That's what AIccelerate 2030 delivers:
–
Sustainable growth reaching learners in banking, insurance and beyond
–
AI-powered journeys where every student gets what they need, when they need it
–
Qualifications that build professionals who don't just pass exams but transform workplaces

Here's the truth: this works because of you. Because of partners who entrust us with their people, students who show up ready to grow, and an ecosystem that makes transformation possible. We don't do this alone. We do it together.

To every partner who believed in this work through highs and lows: you're not watching transformation happen. You're making it happen. And we're just getting started.

Here's to 2026. Here's to acceleration.

Today we celebrate the energy, potential, and dreams of South Africa's young people! From townships to cities, from rural communities to urban centres, our youth are the architects of tomorrow's success stories. The future belongs to those who dare to dream – and South Africa's youth are dreaming BIG!

But we also know that dreams need pathways to become reality. Whilst traditional university routes aren't always an option – whether due to financial constraints, life circumstances, or simply different learning styles – there are other ways to build a successful career. That's why CPS continues to design and build Higher Education Qualifications, Occupational Qualifications and Strategic Skills Programmes that offer real pathways into professional fields, designed to be more affordable and flexible for people who need to work whilst they study.

What's exciting is seeing how education providers and corporations throughout South Africa are joining forces to create even more opportunities. Companies are stepping up with funding, mentorship, and job placement. New technologies are making learning more accessible. Innovative approaches are helping people not just pass exams, but actually develop the skills they need to thrive in the workplace.

This is what gives us hope: today's youth aren't just tomorrow's workforce – they're tomorrow's leaders, innovators, and change-makers.

To every young South African with big dreams: Your time is now. Your future is bright. The pathways are there.

The Power of Collaboration and Transformation

When leading industry players unite, remarkable achievements follow. In a recent post, The Da Vinci Institute celebrates how Cornerstone Performance Solutions, through Dr Indira Bhagaloo's leadership of the Programme, is transforming corporate education through academic excellence.

We would like to take this opportunity to honour the Da Vinci Institute's role in shaping the doctoral journeys of two of our leaders, Dr Indira Bhagaloo and Dr Cliff Brunette. Their academic excellence, enriched through Da Vinci's transformative methodology, continues to inspire our vision for workplace learning transformation.

Together, we're advancing corporate education and unlocking human potential. Thank you, Da Vinci Institute, for being part of our journey - here's to many more years of collaborative learning ahead.
