Contract Claims and Disputes Training Course

Masterclass: A Complete Guide to Contract Issues Management

About the Course

How many times have legitimate claims for money and/or time been overlooked or rejected because they have not been identified or substantiated?

This practical course is based on carefully designed case studies that highlight what should happen, where people have gone wrong and best practices that you can utilise. It aims to ensure your issues are identified, managed and agreed within the restrictions imposed by any agreement or contract.

Where the contract or agreement provides little or no guidance regarding claims or disputes, the course will discuss what options are available and how they should be implemented.

The management of contract issues includes a number of steps which should be followed to ensure the best possible outcome is achieved. Therefore, the course will consider what information is required to properly substantiate and justify entitlement.

The contract claims and disputes training course will also look at how that information should be presented, what methods of evaluation are available and when to use them. It mixes updates in theory and concepts with practical wisdom.
