Course Description

“Come to terms with all of your organisation’s compliance requirements.”

Identifying your compliance requirements

Every organisation faces a range of internal and external compliance risks. This final course in the Protecht suite of risk management courses considers how to identify the risk of compliance breaches and apply appropriate controls, from reporting to workflow escalation.

Compliance programs can be defined as a series of questions that employees respond to on a periodic basis to ensure compliance with relevant obligations, controls, contractual requirements, policies and procedures.

The breadth of compliance issues that organisations are liable to brush up against can be daunting. This course explores what goes into a compliance program: how to build libraries of internal and external compliance requirements; prepare for and report on them; notify the relevant people and take appropriate action.

Who is this training for?

Everyone in the workplace – including compliance and risk managers, senior management or other employees – has a role to play in addressing their organisation’s and their own compliance requirements.

Course Outline

  • Module 1: Defining compliance
  • Module 2: Compliance inputs
  • Module 3: Compliance processes

Competition and Consumer Protection for Universities – Australia

/in , /by

Course Description

This course has been tailored specially for Australian universities. It is legally comprehensive and gives practical tips on how to avoid hefty penalties and personal liability that come with breaching the Competition and Consumer Act – all explained using plain English.

Universities operate in a highly competitive market for the supply of tertiary education services to full and part-fee paying students, and students are likely to have enforceable consumer protection and other rights under the CCA.

Universities also compete for students on non-price factors and have customers through their ordinary commercial operations. The Competition and Consumer Act (CCA) applies to universities’ business activities such as dealing with suppliers, research partners and food retailers among others. The CCA also prohibits universities from engaging in anti-competitive conduct and conduct which is unfair or unconscionable.

Who is this training for?

It is important that University staff understand the requirements of the CCA and how it applies in the unique University environment.
