EasyBurse

Description

Founded by student trio Njabulo Mthanti, Mihlali Jordan, and Joshua Zeeler, Easyburse is a startup that provides students with increased accessibility to bursary, vacation work and graduate programme opportunities. By means of a web-based portal, the Easyburse team allows students to fill out a questionnaire populated with questions typically found in a bursary application form.

The form is then used as a ‘learner profile’ and used to apply for programmes housed on the Easyburse’s database. Access to these profiles is offered (partly) to respective job providers who are then able to select candidates who will fit the criteria of their bursary programmes. Easyburse has previously implemented their system at the Cyril Ramaphosa Education Trust (CRET).
