SARIPA Courses

           


INSOL International and the South African Restructuring and Insolvency Practitioner Association (SARIPA) are delighted to be jointly presenting two courses on South African insolvency law, namely the Programme in South African Insolvency Law and Practice and the Programme in South African Business Rescue. 

While business rescue was covered in the 2022 Programme in South African Insolvency Law and Practice, from 2023 it has been decided to present two distinct courses, one dealing with insolvency law and practice and one dealing with the business rescue process. The Programme in South African Law and Practice will focus on sequestration and liquidation, while the Programme in South African Business Rescue will focus on the South African rescue procedure contained in Chapter 6 of the Companies Act 2008.

Programme in South African Insolvency Law and Practice

The Programme in South African Insolvency Law and Practice (the SARIPA Insolvency Course) is a well-established course that has been presented under the banner of SARIPA (and its predecessor organisation, AIPSA) for more than 27 years. The SARIPA Insolvency Course is not only aimed at South Africans but is also available to be completed by persons from outside South Africa.

The lectures on this course are presented by experts in practice and academia and include well-known names such as Mr Julian Jones (Webber Wentzel), Ms Lindi Coetzee (Nelson Mandela University), Prof André Boraine (University of Pretoria), Emeritus Professor Anneli Loubser (University of South Africa), Mr Zaheer Cassim (Cassim Law), Mr Eric Levenstein (Werksmans), Ms Nastascha Harduth (Werksmans), Malachizodok Mpolokeng (Werksmans), Professor Juanitta Calitz (University of Johannesburg), Ms René Bekker (COO of SARIPA) and Ms Marijke Luther (Master on Call).

The next intake on the SARIPA Insolvency Course will commence their studies on 1 March 2024 and registrations will open on 1 October 2023. The duration of the course is 10 months and the course is presented completely online.
