The DMASA has brought an innovative compliance solution straight to your screen in partnership with Weavind & eSTUDY! Our eSTUDY POPIA courses are fully accredited, allowing you to claim on your Workplace Skills Plan (WSP), Annual Training Report and Black Economic Empowerment (BEE) scorecards. Being POPIA complaint assures prospective customers that you take the protection of their personal information seriously.
One of the responsibilities of an Information Officer is to ensure that “internal awareness sessions are conducted regarding the provisions of the Act, regulations made in terms of the Act, codes of conduct, or information obtained from the Regulator” in other words, the Information Officer must make sure that all employees receive training in POPIA. This may seem like an enormous and challenging task, and unfortunately this exercise is not optional – an Information Officer must ensure that they fulfil their obligations as required by POPIA, otherwise they can face serious consequences.
There is no need to panic, as this requirement can be fulfilled quickly and easily. Purchase the POPIA Fundamental Course and receive a 50% discount on any elective (Human Resources, Legal & Compliance, Finance & Procurement, Marketing & I.T). Employees can receive training that is convenient, captivating, and easy to follow, which can be completed in their own time and at their own pace - legal training has never been easier. Contact training@dmasa.org or call 0861 362 362 for more information.
