The Management of REAL PEOPLE decided to enrol 15 staff members for an in-house qualification (The Certificate in Management majoring in Business and Marketing Management), due to the exceptional service given to a staff member from REAL PEOPLE who successfully completed the Bachelor of Business Administration Degree at Southern Business School.
REAL PEOPLE, established in 2001, creates the operational capability of collecting on partial and non-performing consumer finance portfolios in South Africa. This core competence – to collect unsecured debt in the supposedly “higher risk” end of the market – has enabled them to take opportunities and diversify into a number of related areas of business, such as Unsecured Credit in South Africa and East Africa; Affordable Housing, Educational Products, Cellular Products and Assurance.
The participants attend a three-day intensely interactive contact session on a monthly basis, presented by the Centre for Management and Leadership Development (CMLD) of Southern Business School. Participants are required to complete various formative assessment activities in the form of a portfolio of evidence including assignments, learning experience log sheets and a work-based project to be presented in 2013. The summative assessment consists of an official 3 hour written examination paper.
