Background

This logistics entity was originally housed in the Ukwanda Centre for Rural School.  However, due to exponential growth in the areas of academics and logistics on the decentralised clinical platform a decision was made by the FMHS to which incorporates both urban and rural sites.????

The acronym stands for Stellenbosch University Logistics for the Clinical Training Platform. This unit is now a stand-alone professional support service component of the FMHS, managed by the Clinical Training Platform manager, under the authority of the Deputy Dean Clinical Services and Social Impact.

The SUNLOC office which serves the clinical training platform is located at the Tygerberg campus and from there rolls out a multipronged logistics support system to students. This includes transport facilitation with shuttle services and vehicle hire through close liaison with vehicle fleet or community co-ordinators; as well as accommodation arrangements; and ITC support from a resource bank of laptops, routers and data products.???
