Available Courses

Courses Content

This 3 hour workshop (running from 8:30am to 11:30am) is directed at trainee accountants in the first year of their training contracts.

We will challenge a trainee’s understanding of what ethics is and how they might approach ethical decision making from a personal perspective.  We will discuss to whom we all have ethical responsibilities (the moral community) and will then explore common normative theories on ethical behaviour including Utilitarianism (Consequentialism), Kantian ethics, and Virtue theory.

Trainees will get the opportunity to question some of their current personal behaviour and reflect on whether any changes might be needed.

Fees

Fees for this on-line session in 2023 are R 420 per person (ex VAT).  Fees will increase to R440 (ex VAT) per person from 1 January 2024.

The workshop can also be presented very effectively on an in-house basis (on-line or face-to-face) where the whole firm can be taken through the content.  In-house rates for 2024 are R6 000 (ex VAT) for up to 25 participants (R5 750 in 2023), with a further fee of R330 per additional participant over 25 (R315 in 2023).
