Online Training Course Overview
Contracts should clearly set out and define parties’ rights and responsibilities both to each other, and to third parties. Organisations use contracts as the basis of their legal relationship, yet many legal disputes arise over their interpretation due to vague and inconsistent drafting. To meet the challenges of today’s commercial environment, the skill of both understanding contracts and being able to draft them clearly and unambiguously is vital to your organisation’s commercial success. Contracts can be used to minimise exposure to cost and time overruns, potential disputes, and provide forms of security for performance failures. This COPEX online training course focuses on commercial and practical implications of key legal concepts in structuring contracts and potential risks and pitfalls in their drafting, reducing the risk of costly mistakes and accepting unacceptable liabilities. It also offers guidance and practical tools and techniques in negotiating the terms and conditions of contract.
