Details

PAIA and POPIA Compliance is about balancing two opposing human rights regarding information access – the right to know and the right not to know.  It is essential for South African businesses, both from a risk and management perspective, to be compliant with these laws.

Managing employee and client personal information is a responsibility that now has legal weight.  This course covers the basics of these acts, what they mean for business and what needs to be done to comply. 

 

A fast-paced 1-day overview of PAIA and POPIA for managers and leaders of businesses, to unpack the basics in a clear and understandable way.  This course can be online via virtual live instruction for groups of 6 or more, or in a classroom setting.

We also have a blended version with LMS content that can be done in 2 x 4-hour modules via MS Teams.

Add me to the waiting list

Should you need this course urgently, the following options are available:

  1. Pay for 6 delegates (whether you have them or not) and we will schedule the course as soon as possible.
  2. If you have fewer delegates and cannot pay for 6, we can negotiate a shortened course where some of the time will be spent in blended learning - watching videos and doing tutorials and exercises with some contact time with the trainer. We would want to discuss what your core needs are so that we cover those aspects. You need to have paid for 3 delegates at least.
