Course overview

Like every other team in business, your managers’ teams work hard to win bigger contracts and a greater market share. That drive to succeed benefits consumers and traders alike. But without rules, the marketplace works more like a free-for-all, with the biggest players overpowering everyone. Anticompetitive behaviour starts with innocent conversations that share business secrets, leading to deals that stop the business they work for trading fairly. 

With a confident grasp of competition law, your employees will stay compliant – spotting any weaknesses that could lead to a legal investigation. The company they work for will need to encourage a culture of compliance from the top down. And if they’re managers, they’ll encourage healthy competition with rival companies while teaching employees best practices that keep things legal.
