APLU in collaboration with the Konrad Adenauer Stiftung and the Office of the Public Protector of South Africa, concluded the 2018 series of public procurement law training for investigators of the Public Protector’s office from 26 to 30 November 2018 in Mahikeng. All investigators of the various North West offices of the Public Protector gathered in Mahikeng for a week-long training programme.
This was the third week-long course offered to Public Protector investigators in 2018, the previous having being held in East London (all Eastern Cape offices) and Bloemfontein (Free State and all Northern Cape offices) respectively. A total of seven provinces in addition to the Head Office have now benefited from this training programme that started in 2016 and is expected to be concluded in 2019, when all investigators would have received in-depth training on public procurement law.
