Restrictive Covenants and Non-Compete Agreements: Trends, Developments, and Best Practices

Over the past years, multiple states have enacted and amended laws against unfair competition. However, the push to widen the scope of banning restrictive covenants and non-compete agreements raises concerns among employers, especially in protecting important company assets and trade secrets. This is further challenged by the hybrid and “new normal” work setup because of COVID-19.
Prompted by the increased enforcement focus to promote fair competition in the economy, federal actions limiting restrictive covenants are likely to be seen. Thus, employers must ensure that all existing and future agreements are compliant with relevant state laws and must contain adequate protection.
Listen as a panel of thought leaders and practitioners organized by The Knowledge Group provide the audience with the latest legislative developments surrounding restrictive covenants and non-compete agreements. Speakers will offer best strategies for businesses to ensure compliance and protection at the same time.

Provincial regulators of CPAs in Canada do not require that independent providers of CPD be approved to offer courses. Instead, individual CPAs are responsible for assessing whether a CPD activity meets their requirements, and may take activities from any source provided those requirements are met.
Every course offered on LearnFormula is delivered by a qualified subject matter expert or learning organization, and advances learning objectives that are relevant to the responsibilities or professional competencies of Canadian CPAs. All activities on LearnFormula are quantifiable in terms of hours, and are also verifiable, in that users receive documented evidence of their attendance via a certificate of completion after finishing a course (and this certificate is stored by LearnFormula indefinitely). Nearly 100,000 Canadian CPAs successfully satisfy their CPD requirements via LearnFormula on an annual basis.
