set of aspects of the Management of Technology. Candidates ideally have either a University or Technikon

TLP runs over one year and is composed of four modules. Candidates are exposed to a combination of classroom-based activities and study visits to industrial operations.
The course content of TLP is aimed at providing exposure to a wide variety of issues that relate to the real world of technology implementation. This ranges across Law, Economics, Strategy Formulation, Project Management, amongst others.
In TLP there are no exams to write. Tasks involving real industrial problems are set. Candidates visit the industrial sites to study the issues. Candidates also do verbal presentations and work in study teams.
