Now an Authorized Training Reseller for internationally recognised ISO training

Market Place Development expands access to international ISO training in South Africa.

Market Place Development has entered a partnership with an independent, internationally accredited Global Examination and Training Authority to expand access to its training courses in South Africa, with an initial focus on ISO/IEC 42001 for artificial intelligence management and ISO/IEC 27001 for information security management. The partnership strengthens MPD’s ability to connect organisations and professionals across South Africa and Africa with internationally recognised online ISO training and professional certification pathways in priority areas such as AI governance, cybersecurity and information security — bringing together global expertise with MPD’s practical focus on consulting, business development, skills development and connecting the dots between people, opportunity and organisational performance.
