Fundamentals of Data Protection and POPIA
2 days|Delivered on request
Fundamentals of Data Protection and POPIA is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through liability and indemnity and contract interpretation 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 data protection under POPIA, service level agreements and cross-border contracting in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Review data protection under POPIA and say plainly whether it is working, measured against the Companies Act
- Bring service level agreements into line with current good practice
- Explain cross-border contracting to someone who does not do the work
- Spot where company secretarial practice is failing before it becomes a finding
