The Amavubi star has been the talk of the country since Sunday after his decision to defy the Amakhosi technical bench and refuse to be replaced by his rival.
The duo are understood to be among many trainees who have enrolled for the course that is expected to run for more than one week. The Masandawana chair already possesses a CAF D licence, which he trained for over two years ago.

The Bucs youngster has been ruled out after suffering an injury during their Carling Knockout Cup game against Siwelele. Ahead of the vital games, the Mofokeng absence is another setback that Bafana are facing, apart from the FIFA decision to deduct their points.
Despite losing their group opening game, South Africa rose from what looked like their ruins to register back-to-back victories and reach the knockout stage. The African champions also scored eight goals and only conceded three, showing how resilient they have been in the global showpiece.
Amajita reached the knockout phase of the global tournament for the second time following their win over the Young Stars and Stripes. First-half goals were enough to earn the Southern African side the win.
Amakhosi are out of the Carling Knockout following a first-round loss to the Cape Winelands outfit. After a 0-0 draw, penalties were needed to decide the team that goes through to the quarter-finals and the Soweto giants lost 5-4.
After a tightly fought encounter within regulation time, Amakhosi and the Maroons proceeded to extra time after failing to score. This was yet another dramatic game where the winner had to be decided from the spot kick after a goalless draw, just like the Mamelodi Sundowns and Marumo Gallants duel on Saturday.
The Soweto giants are pushing their continental ambitions while also trying to make a big mark on the domestic scene. They have passed through the first hurdle of the quest to play in the group stages of CAF tournaments and now know who they will meet in the last qualifying round.
Broos' decision to overlook players from the Soweto giants raised eyebrows given that Amakhosi look like a much more improved side than they were last season. Although they do not have players in the national team, Makhosi have been told to support Bafana wholeheartedly.
The winger has lauded his captain for the performance he put in to help the Sea Robbers get their quarter final ticket in the annual domestic competition.

The tough central defender has been arguably South African football's biggest revelation of the year 2025. From playing DStv Diski Challenge football to becoming a vital cog for both club and country, the 20-year-old's rise has been sensational. Hugo Broos is even insisting that he should go to Europe and a January move is most likely.
The Belgian tactician has explained why the Bucs youngster should leave as soon as possible if he is to get even better. Although he started playing senior football recently, the Sea Robber has established himself as a key player for both Bafana and the club.
The Bucs star looks to have discovered his mojo back, given how impressive he has been for the Sea Robbers and even how he played for Bafana in September. Now, Broos has revealed what he told the former Mamelodi Sundowns star and what he expects from him.
