Three-hour shifts
A person takes the seat for about three hours. They speak the work in their own language. The tools assist. The person decides, and signs what was done.
Events and presentations
A person stays on shift.
cedec.cloud is where CEDEC shares the work with partners. The first presentation is CareerWIL: three-hour shifts in which a person drives AI and synthetic intelligence, in service of other people and of the organisations they work for — public or private.
- Sawubona. We see you.
- Humans drive the system
- South Africa, built for SADC
The group, the six pillars, and how to work with CEDEC live at cedec.africa.
Continued human control
Autonomy is welcome. An empty room is not.
A country can automate its work and still keep a post office: a counter where a person answers. CareerWIL is that counter for AI. For about three hours a person drives the tools. Then the next person takes the shift. Quality has a name. Security has someone who can be called.
02
Quality has a name
A model can draft, route, and repeat. It cannot carry the consequence. The shift is how quality stays with someone who can be asked what happened.
03
Security has a counter
Machines fail in quiet ways. Models drift. A person on shift can stop a process, check a record, and answer for it. That is the control that does not leave the building.

Silicon Valley working visit
CEDEC is presenting CareerWIL with the South African business delegation in California — San Jose, Stanford, and the wider Silicon Valley meetings. The rooms are about the frontier of AI, an African AI economy, the future of work, and how safety is kept. The presentation we put on the table is the shift.
The frontier
Capabilities are moving quickly. A cockpit with nobody in it is not a plan for a country, a company, or a clinic.
An African AI economy
Compute and capital matter. So does a workforce that can drive the systems, in South Africa and across SADC, rather than only consume them.
Work and skills
High unemployment is not answered by a tool that removes the person. It is answered by supervised, productive shifts with evidence a partner can trust.
Safety and security
Autonomous systems need a human who can intervene. That is a design choice we are prepared to demonstrate, not a line in a policy.
Delegate timings and venues are issued separately and can change. This page carries the presentation. It is not the private programme.
The shelf
CareerWIL, then the work it keeps human.
We start with CareerWIL.online. Beside it are the BusinesSite verticals that run with a person on shift — the same three hours, the same standard — in service of other people and their organisations.
Start here
CareerWIL
Three-hour shifts in which a person drives AI and synthetic intelligence. Speak the work. Prove it. A mentor signs the evidence. The next person takes the seat. CareerWIL.online is the platform CEDEC supports with its partners, and the first presentation on this shelf.
The operating system
BusinesSite
Voice-first business. The mother tongue is the interface, and a person stays on the switchboard.
Township retail
i-Spaza
The shelf, the price, and the worker who serves the street. Voice at the counter, evidence behind it.
Land and evidence
Sensi-Bility
Farms with a voice record a verifier can follow. The person on the land remains the authority.
Place and skills
NextSmartCity
Willowvale first. Young people enter real work in a real place, with a shift and a record.
Care
MyHealthWealth
A care desk whose back office is a CareerWIL shift: a person who can be asked, not a queue that answers itself.
Evidence
SchoolLMS
Digital Paper. When a shift is proved, the slip is written where a mentor and a college can read it.
Shared benefit
eyesWallet
National currency. A benefit that can be shared. The rail a completed shift can be recognised on.
Travel
Afro Roots
Local experts host the journey. The story stays with the person who knows the place.
Creative desk
NATIVEnvoy
Indigenous creatives and allies. A desk for the work, with the maker still in charge of it.
Household
FamilyXP
Life services for a family. Someone can still be reached when the tools have done their part.
Fashion house
Godi's Couture
Made to order. A house, a maker, and a customer — the garment is not produced by a machine alone.
The shelf
Cake Couture
An eShop a person still runs: order, pay, and collect from the business that baked it.
Book ahead
PreBooking
The offer stays with the business that made it. A booking is a promise a person can keep.
Further partner decks will be added here as they are ready to share. The organisation behind the partnership is cedec.africa. The ethical platform underneath the work is MOADE: humans drive AI to serve humans.
BusinesCard
Don’t type it in. Scan this.
The same living QR card used across BusinesSite. A scan opens this contact, saves it to a phone, and can start a conversation in the BusinesSite app. The full organisation — pillars, ownership, and the contact form — stays on cedec.africa.
