Welcome to the new year, new government and a new SIP program. This year we are planning to provide you with excellent resources and information. We will be holding seminars and workshops in areas where there is a lack of expertise on cutting edge issues/topics. We are inaugurating the year with a panel discussion on Identity Theft. We will use a new format, which was very successful last year, see the photos:

Your comments and suggestions are always welcome.

Yours truly,

  Protect from Identity Theft

Identity theft is emerging as the most rapidly growing crime of the 21st century. According to a recent survey conducted by Deloitte (pre-registered member will get a free copy of the survey), one in five respondents has been the victim of identity fraud or theft. The threat is increasing significantly, and methods of identity theft are becoming more sophisticated every year.

You will gain insight from a panel of speakers and an opportunity to meet them in person after their presentations.
