The SAJ will stage a three-day Essentials of Project Management workshop from Tuesday, June 7 to Thursday, June 9, from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m. daily. The project management seminar is designed to provide participants with skills and competencies needed to define, develop and execute projects at industry standards by increasing efficiency and reducing risk.

The Essentials of Project Management workshop is facilitated and certified by the Management Institute for National Development.

Meanwhile, the three-hour Sexual Harassment Act (2021) workshop will be staged on Tuesday, June 21, beginning at 9 a.m., and will familiarise participants with the provisions of the newly enacted Sexual Harassment Act, 2021 which, under the law, requires workplaces and institutions to issue sexual harassment policies and bring those policies to the attention of workers.

The online workshop includes presentations, group discussions, case studies and workplace scenarios with suggested best practice responses.

The workshop will be facilitated by corporate trainer and consultant, Wayne Robinson, who has extensive experience in the public and private sectors, ranging from human resource management, industrial relations, organisational behaviour, supervisory management and transformational leadership.
