Why Choose this course
Compliance to the Protection of Personal Information Act (PoPIA) is becoming imperative in the work environment. It has an impact on all businesses in South Africa, because even if a business does not use personal information in its day-to-day activities, the business must keep the personal information of its customers, employees, and suppliers. The PoPIA has the greatest impact on businesses that process personal information.
The purpose of this 45 minute e-learning program is to make you aware of what the PoPIA is about, why it is necessary and what its compliance entails, as well as the implications of non-compliance.
