Final call to all Information Officers!
Do you own your own business? Run a company? Are you a CEO or a managing Director? Have you been designated as an information officer?
Then this session is for YOU!
As the head of a private body, you are accountable for all things POPI. Which means that you will have to ensure that compliance is addressed or face the consequences.
Join us in this informative interactive session as we specifically focus on the role of the information officer, what they need to do to ensure compliance, and what the consequences are of non-compliance.
This session will be 2.5 hours with a 30 minute Q and A session at the end.
Please note that this session is specifically focused on the information officer. We have a separate session on POPI Awareness for employees. As such only the information officer or deputy information officer will benefit from this session.
