Course overview
This short course covers the use of social media by all SAICA members, in both a personal and professional capacity.

The SAICA Constitution states (in section 5.5) that "SAICA is to insist upon a high standard of professional behaviour on the part of members, associates and students of the Institute and to preserve and maintain the integrity and status of the profession, to take any steps which may be thought necessary to stop or prevent dishonourable conduct and practices by members, associates and trainee accountants, and for this purpose to hold enquiries into the conduct of members, associates and trainee accountants and to take disciplinary action against members, associates and trainee accountants, including the termination of their membership, associateship or registration, as the case may be, and their expulsion from the Institute."

SAICA is, therefore, providing members, associates and trainee accountants with FREE guidelines to consider when using social media.
