Technical Training

Compliance is learnt and practised. Our training programmes turn Law No. 5-A/2026 (Lei n.º 5-A/2026) into daily working practice for the teams that interact with public entities.

Technical session — The Legitimate Interest Representation Framework, Law No. 5-A/2026

A complete introduction to the framework for professionals who need to master it quickly. The session covers the object and definitions of legitimate interest representation (representação legítima de interesses) (Article 2), the public entities within scope (Article 3), the architecture of the Transparency Register of Interest Representation (Registo de Transparência da Representação de Interesses — RTRI) (Articles 4, 5 and 13), the duties of registered entities (Articles 6 and 7), hearings and disclosure (Article 8), the legislative footprint (pegada legislativa) (Article 10), sanctions (Article 11) and the Code of Conduct (Código de Conduta) (Article 15 and Annex).

Audience: lawyers, compliance officers, secretaries-general, public affairs and institutional relations teams. Duration: 3 hours. Format: online or on site. Next editions: [dates to be confirmed].

Practical workshop — RTRI registration and declarative duties

A hands-on workshop for the people who will actually prepare and maintain the registration. Participants work through the mandatory content of the register (Article 5(1)) — corporate identification, clients and interests represented, corporate bodies and share capital, the responsible person and annual income — build the supporting dossier, and set up the internal circuit for updating data within 30 days (Article 5(4)). The workshop also addresses the 60-day registration window for professional representatives of third-party interests under the transitional regime (Article 19(2)) and the identification duties of Article 7(1).

Audience: those responsible for the representation activity, legal and administrative staff. Duration: 4 hours. Format: online or on site. Next editions: [dates to be confirmed].

In-company programme — tailored by sector and role

A personalised programme built around your organisation: your sector, the public entities you interact with, your registrant category under Article 13(3) and your internal policies. Typical modules combine the framework session, the registration workshop and role-specific guidance — for boards, for public affairs teams, for public entities implementing the disclosure of meetings (Article 8(3)), the public consultations page (Article 9) and legislative footprint mechanisms (Article 10). Content, duration and format are agreed with each client, and the programme can be delivered in Portuguese or English.

Audience: organisations covered by the framework, private or public. Duration and format: tailored. Scheduling: [dates to be confirmed].
