|
|
|
|
SAIF KZN has recently been re-launched and the committee have
put together the following program for 2008. As we are just starting
up, we have decided on a fairly small selection of events this year
and hope to expand our programme in 2009 to include more training
events.
Tea and Tips are designed to be more informal training
opportunities, with time given to networking and sharing ideas. The
program begins with tea and networking is followed by half an hour
input from a speaker, followed by half an hour discussion and
sharing of ideas. Training Session(s) offer more focused and
structured training opportunities on a specific topic, done in
workshop format.
We invite you to participate in the following events to be held this
year. |
