MORE THAN
TRAINING.
Built On Purpose.
Karishmas Holding and Solutions is a premier provider of comprehensive security and firearm training. Established on 18 September 2020 by Elias Chauke, the company was born from a deep and sincere concern about rising unemployment in South Africa.
Recognising the need for specialised training within the security and firearm sector, Elias saw an opportunity to empower individuals with practical skills while contributing to the safety and security of communities.
Today, that original vision continues to guide Karishmasa: education, skills development and professional training as pathways towards opportunity, dignity and a better future.

Empowering People. Building Futures.
We truly believe in what we do at Karishmasa Training Academy. We seek to empower potential job seekers with the discipline and qualities unique to the security industry, helping them better themselves and develop the self-belief and capacity to provide for their families.
Our purpose extends beyond employment. It is about restoring human dignity, developing confidence and contributing towards a better South Africa.

Going Green.
Caring for our environment is part of our wider responsibility to the communities in which we live and work.
Karishmasa operates a registered recycling company that processes recyclable materials, contributing towards responsible waste management and the protection of our environment.
People First.
We operate a registered non-profit organisation dedicated to assisting less fortunate communities by providing food parcels in rural areas.
Our social responsibility initiatives are rooted in the belief that helping one family can contribute to the wellbeing of an entire community and, ultimately, the nation.
I am a grateful student whose training at Karishmasa became an important part of my personal journey. During a serious and life-threatening incident, I found myself in circumstances that demanded calmness, awareness and the ability to respond under extreme pressure. The training I received at Karishmasa gave me confidence in my abilities and helped me draw upon skills I had developed during my training. I remain grateful to the Karishmasa team for the knowledge, discipline and preparation they provided.β Jack, Karishmasa Student
