Consumer Protection Law for Managers
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is for the person accountable for the work rather than the person doing it. It covers company secretarial practice and board procedure from the position of someone who must review, approve and answer for the output. Managers carry this because commercial teams routinely sign obligations that legal only sees after a dispute, and the accountability does not delegate cleanly. Delegates leave able to work confidently with data protection under POPIA, intellectual property and legal risk assessment in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Put data protection under POPIA on a footing they can defend to a reviewer, measured against POPIA
- Take ownership of intellectual property rather than escalating it
- Explain legal risk assessment to someone who does not do the work
- Bring regulatory compliance into line with current good practice
