What is the difference between Internship, Learnership and Apprenticeship?

Internship:

An internship is on the job training for an individual with a qualification looking to gain experience relevant to what they studied or wish to do in future as a career.

Apprenticeship:

An apprenticeship combines theory, practical work and workplace practice in a chosen trade field, and in the case of a listed trade ends in a trade test and an artisan certificate of competence.

Learnership: 

A learnership is a vocational education and training programme that facilitates the linkage between structured learning and work experience in order to obtain a registered qualification.

It combines theory and workplace practice into a qualification that is registered on the National Qualifications Framework (NQF). A learnership usually constitutes 120 credits or 1200 "notional" hours of learning.
