Commercial Law for Non-Specialists
2 days|Delivered on request
Commercial Law for Non-Specialists is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through cross-border contracting and data protection under POPIA without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because commercial teams routinely sign obligations that legal only sees after a dispute, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with contract lifecycle management, regulatory compliance and competition law in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Make a decision about contract lifecycle management without waiting for a specialist, measured against established contract law principles
- Improve regulatory compliance within their own organisation
- Review competition law and say plainly whether it is working
- Take ownership of corporate governance rather than escalating it
