Shoprite, Checkers, Pick n Pay, SPAR, Boxer and Usave hire thousands of cashiers with no experience — but they test basic maths, honesty and customer manner, and they fire fast for till mistakes. This course trains the actual job: opening your float, scanning, giving correct change, spotting fake notes, handling cards and SnapScan, surviving month-end queues, and protecting yourself from the mistakes and temptations that end cashier careers. Finish it and you can walk into a store assessment — and your first shift — ready.
