Anti-competitive behaviour puts individuals, consumers and organisations at risk. That makes it critical for all employees to understand and comply with competition laws. But for some employees – due to their role, responsibilities or job location – the risk for anti-competitive behaviour is increased, making specialised training necessary.
Antitrust & Competition Law (Advanced) offers specialised training, taking learners deeper into the world of competition law. Throughout the course, an emphasis is placed on best practices and guidelines for avoiding risk.
The course content is tailored specifically to address the training needs of employees whose jobs require them to have a more in-depth understanding of antitrust and competition laws. A basic version also available.
