Chapter Chairperson: Mpumalanga
I am Sherlock Mthokozisi Shabangu, I am a social worker by Profession. I hold a bachelor’s degree in social work measured in Psychology and Sociology which I obtained at the University Durban Westville also known as the University of KwaZulu Natal Westville Campus in 2001. I also have a diploma in Public Relations which I obtained at Natal Computer College. I also have a post diploma in social work which was obtained at the University of Durban Westville. I started working as a social worker at Kwamashu Child Welfare while getting experience and volunteering my services. In 2002 I was employed at Phoenix Child Welfare servicing the Ohlange office in Inanda. After that, I moved to the Department of Social Development based in Inanda Newtown. In 2006 I moved to SAPS in Mpumalanga as an EAP social worker. I only worked for a year then moved to South African National
Park in 2007 until to date. I have 17 years of experience in SANParks. Currently, I am pursuing my master’s degree in public health with the University of Johannesburg.
- Growing the chapter to becoming a formidable force in the EAP space in the region – priority goal is therefore the recruitment of additional members and proving CPD accredited events . We are targeting other district in the province where mines are located .
