Retirement Fund Resources

Training.

The ICTS Academy is a dedicated learning platform for decision makers, advisors and administrators in the retirement funds industry. It brings modern and engaging learning to you, anywhere, anytime.

The ICTS Academy exists to help fiduciaries of retirement funds, including trustees, manco’s, members and advisors, fulfil their fiduciary duties. We do this by blending relevant and practical learning experiences, information and case studies, put together and delivered by experienced industry professionals. And then tying this back to your specific fund – meaning that each course is finished with not only the theory needed but also the practical application in your fund’s specific context.

By completing any of the broad range of courses available, not only do you earn a certificate of excellence, but also CPD hours, if that is relevant to you.

We are also able to harness our experience for your benefit by creating custom courses for boards of retirement funds, umbrella fund manco’s and employers, employee benefit consultants and others, in a format and timing that suits you.

The ICTS Academy has nearly a 30-year history, having helped develop over 15,000 individuals in the retirement fund industry.

Board/Trustee Meeting Assistance.

Focus your meetings on what counts/adds value to members

We know that board meeting packs, often contain personal and confidential information about employees, retirement fund members, etc.

In a paper-based environment, numerous board packs are produced and may inadvertently be left lying where unauthorised persons could get hold of and exploit the information..

Moving to a secure, user-access only digital platform ensures that information is only available to those who are authorised to do so. Meetings are also focused on the matters that count. And we use technology to contribute to sustainable business practices.

EBnet was one of the first companies to bring board digital software solutions to the South African market and understands the different platforms available.

We have a range of options available to cater to the different needs and levels of sophistication required by boards to assist in finding the right solution for you.

Service providers are selected on the basis of their ability to provide services and functionality on the following list of requirements:
