Intellectual Property Auditing and Assurance
3 days|Delivered on request
This programme is written from the assurance side. Delegates learn to test whether contract lifecycle management and company secretarial practice are working as claimed, and how to evidence the conclusion. Assurance work is under scrutiny because regulators have moved from guidance to enforcement across several sectors. Delegates leave able to work confidently with regulatory compliance, board procedure and contract drafting in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Bring regulatory compliance into line with current good practice, measured against the Companies Act
- Spot where board procedure is failing before it becomes a finding
- Explain contract drafting to someone who does not do the work
