Lephalale TVET College, formerly known as Ellisras TVET College, is described on its own site as "a product of a merger of two colleges with very distinct and diverse historical backgrounds," though the merger date and the names of the constituent colleges are not stated on the site itself. It operates in Limpopo's Waterberg District with two delivery sites: the main Lephalale Campus, serving the mining and energy sector communities of that town, and a Modimolle Campus serving the southern Waterberg region. Its mission is described as creating "lasting solutions to poverty, unemployment, illiteracy and inequality through the provision of vocational and technical skills." As of research in August 2026, the college's official website (leptvetcol.edu.za) was returning a server error and displaying a "down for maintenance" message, so this profile draws on archived (2022) snapshots of the site via the Wayback Machine for programme detail; current offerings may have changed. No published student enrolment figure was found.
