Intellectual Property in the Public Sector
3 days|Delivered on request
Intellectual Property in the Public Sector takes the discipline and works it through the constraints of this operating context, including employment law, data protection under POPIA and the compliance obligations that come with it. The sector framing is necessary because regulators have moved from guidance to enforcement across several sectors, and generic training rarely survives contact with the local rules. Delegates leave able to work confidently with company secretarial practice, corporate governance and regulatory compliance in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Explain company secretarial practice to someone who does not do the work, measured against POPIA
- Put corporate governance on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
