PPP Training
In September 2010, AmeTrade sponsored a number of representatives from various PPP units to attend the PPP Foundation Training Course in South Africa. We would like to also use this opportunity to thank the South African PPP unit for being of great assistance in this regard.
The training had the following content;
• Inception of the PPP project and establishment of Project Team, Steering Committee, and appointment Project Officer and the Transaction Advisor
• South African Regulatory framework with regards to the PPPs
• Process of conducting a feasibility study
• Contract Management
• Code of Good Practice for BBBEE in PPPs
• Standardised PPP Provisions- draft PPP agreement that provides legal definition in terms of PPPs
• Risk Matrix and exercise on risk allocation
• Sector Presentations, i.e.. Municipal PPPs, Tourism, Health sector etc
• Work of the Transaction Advisor
In 2011, AmeTrade will be running a number of trainings including country focused PPP trainings. We will keep you updated and informed.
Below is some of the feedback from trainees:

“I must express my profound appreciation for the opportunity availed me ... The experiences and the knowledge gained is unquantifiable especially coming from people who are real practitioners and in a great country with success stories of PPP Practices. The experiences and exposure have really deepened my knowledge, this was made possible by the quality of delivery and the interactions...”

“It was a brief training but covered all the major processes involved in procuring public infrastructure through PPPs. This is of benefit to me as a Communications Officer, not because I am involved in the technical details/aspect of the procurement, but to better communicate what ICRC does to the external publics”
