The Western Cape’s capital is Cape Town, the province’s only metro and the centre of South Africa’s start-up scene. Beyond the city, the Cape Winelands, the Overberg, the West Coast and the Garden Route are driven by agriculture, wine, fruit exports and tourism.

Organisations here often have staff spread between Cape Town and towns such as Stellenbosch, Paarl, Worcester and George, which makes online training a practical choice.
