Wilberforce Community College is a private further education and training institution located at Plot 26, corner of Buffalo and Sekontle Road, Evaton, Gauteng. It traces its origins to the Wilberforce Institute, established by the African Methodist Episcopal (AME) Church in Evaton in the early 1900s (sources vary between 1905 and 1908) to train ministers and teachers for community leadership. The original institute was forced to close under apartheid-era legislation in the early 1960s; after apartheid ended, the AME Church re-established the institution as Wilberforce Community College. Third-party education directories list a private college registration number of 2009/FE08/010 for the college, though this could not be independently verified directly against a DHET/QCTO source at the time of this research. The college's stated mission is to provide quality, sustainable, and cost-effective education and training, and it has historically engaged in community service projects such as school partnerships and computer literacy camps. No independent, verifiable information on current student enrolment numbers was found.
