Arbitration and Mediation for Non-Specialists

Legal, Contracts and Governance|2 days|Classroom or live online

Arbitration and Mediation for Non-Specialists is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through regulatory compliance and contract lifecycle management without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because regulators have moved from guidance to enforcement across several sectors, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with contract drafting, service level agreements and legal risk assessment in their own organisation.

What delegates leave able to do

Take ownership of contract drafting rather than escalating it, measured against established contract law principles
Review service level agreements and say plainly whether it is working
Bring legal risk assessment into line with current good practice
Put dispute resolution on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
