Mandate clarity, then delivery.
Permanent secretaries, directors-general, commissioners, policy directors, municipal managers, regulators, parastatal executives, and senior public servants
The AfCFTA Implementation Frameworks (UIEE-C-760) is a 5 days executive education course delivered in hybrid — physical + virtual. Designed for permanent secretaries, directors-general, commissioners, policy directors, municipal managers, regulators, parastatal executives, and senior public servants, this course delivers practical frameworks, decision tools, and applied skills you can use the week you return to your desk.
The course is structured around 5 modules spanning intensive in-person masterclasses, virtual + pre/post work, and a post-course application project. Each module combines faculty-led case studies on African public sector reform — covering policy, governance, fiscal, and service-delivery themes — with applied workshops and peer discussion.
Delivered in 5 cities — Johannesburg, Nairobi, Lagos, Dubai, Mbabane — the course brings together a cohort of 15-25 participants, carefully selected to ensure diversity of sector, geography, and seniority. The peer network you build here is, for many delegates, the single most valuable outcome.
