BCA Conveyancing course

CONVEYANCING COURSE FOR CONVEYANCING SECRETARIES/PARALEGALS

The Black Conveyancers Association (BCA) together with its partners Juta SA and Korbitec, A LexisNexis Company, will be commencing a training initiative aimed specifically at conveyancing secretaries and paralegals. This foundational level course will be presented in a lectured course format. Learners will be introduced to the conveyancing and property landscape.

Course overview
Learners will also be provided with a good working knowledge and understanding of what conveyancing is all about, who the role-players are and be given a fairly detailed overview of what the transfer, bond and bond cancellation process entails, including GhostConvey practical sessions.

Methodology
The course is formally lectured by our Conveyancers and subject matter experts. Learner interaction and participation is encouraged by way of formal assignments, class tests, case studies, occasional role-play situations and self-study. On-going assessment (formative and summative) takes place in order to ensure the learner has a practical understanding of the process to adequately prepare them for prospective employment.

Learning that is assumed to be in place
Basic skills (written and verbal) in English must be in place.

Admission requirements
- Learners must have completed and Passed Grade 12(Matric).
- Learners must have basic computer literacy and numeric skills.
- A valid and active email address for purposes of course communication.

Certification
A certificate of Competency is awarded on completion of the course to learners based on assessment outcomes and the full payment of course fees.

Who should attend?
Those individuals who desire to equip themselves with the fundamental skills and knowledge needed to become successful conveyancing paralegals. This course may also appeal and benefit attorneys, candidate attorneys, bank staff, estate agents, property developers and legal software support staff who seek a better understanding of basic conveyancing procedures.
