The Trainee Ethics Workshop was originally driven by SAICA’s requirement that all trainees with a contract end date of after 31 March 2019 attend a 6-8 hour ethics workshop. In 2021, this requirements was amended to instead require an average of 3 hours per year (either through training and / or through deliberate discussion). While this course is targeted at trainees, it could be extended to apply to any staff member.
The course encompasses the following elements:
The workshop will culminate with trainees being provided with an opportunity to reflect on the content covered.
From January 2022, this session will be split into 3 x separate 3 hour sessions covering personal, professional, and business ethics and these sessions will be presented at regular intervals during the year.
Fees for this on-line session are R1 100 per person, ex VAT (R1 025 in 2020).
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 2021 are R16 750 (R15 750 in 2020) ex VAT for up to 25 participants, with a further fee of R950 (R890 in 2020) per additional participant over 25.

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