WHY TAKE THIS COURSE?

The considerable increase in trade and business, especially by way of the online medium, has resulted in cut-throat competition between sellers and service providers. The quest to be the first in the market has caused some manufacturers, sellers, service providers to offer mediocre goods and services. Although modern technology has made a significant impact on quality, safety and availability of products and services, the fact remains that consumers are often still the victims of dishonest and unfair practices.

This being so, as a consumer one should be well aware of his/ her rights and the ways to escalate a consumer grievance, procedural aspects of filing a consumer complaint, and the remedies available in case of an injury. The absence of this knowledge may cause you to lose your case or not get compensated for the loss that you have suffered.

As a supplier of goods and services, you must similarly be aware of your rights and obligations, and the steps that you must take to protect yourself. This course will enable you to do that.

As a practitioner, this course will arm you with all the necessary information you need to file or defend a consumer complaint on your client’s behalf. Making procedural and drafting errors when filing and fighting a consumer complaint can have dire consequences for your client. It can also be rather embarrassing to lose a case merely due to some technical irregularity. This course, with its checklists and draft precedents, will help ensure that your work is thorough and that you do not lose a lawsuit merely due to some oversight.
