Company Secretarial Practice for Non-Specialists
2 days|Delivered on request
Company Secretarial Practice for Non-Specialists is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through intellectual property and commercial law fundamentals without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because regulators have moved from guidance to enforcement across several sectors, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with corporate governance, contract drafting and liability and indemnity in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Explain corporate governance to someone who does not do the work, measured against POPIA
- Spot where contract drafting is failing before it becomes a finding
- Make a decision about liability and indemnity without waiting for a specialist
- Take ownership of regulatory compliance rather than escalating it
