Scored assessment for sales and procurement.
Scored assessment for procurement and sales. Not a dawn-raid legal playbook and not training in how cartels operate in detail.
Written for the workplace, not for the statute book alone
Competition-law training is often saved for lawyers. Bid-rigging still starts in a sales chat or a “friendly” call between rivals. This course is for the people in those chats: what you must not say, what a cover price looks like, and how to get out of the conversation.
Procurement learners get the other half: identical bids, rotating winners, and subcontracting that looks like a carve-up. The instruction is escalate internally — not to confront a supplier in a way that destroys evidence or tips off a cartel.
Trade associations get a short, practical treatment. Networking is allowed. Coordinating tenders is not. Joint ventures and legitimate collaborations are flagged as “ask legal”, not as a loophole to invent in the course.
Generate from the Competition Act extracts, Commission pamphlets, and your tender policy in Kre8AI. Export as SCORM or HTML. Keep the coach off the assessment.
Public-sector buyers should pair this with MFMA awareness. Private-sector sales teams should pair it with ethics and anti-bribery. Do not merge all three into one overloaded deck.
