Watch the video recordings from our latest webinar series:

Contracts as Risk Mitigation
Contracts are not just paperwork — they are essential tools for managing risk and protecting project delivery.
In this first session of the Contract Mastery Webinar Series 2026, our expert trainers Sean McCarthy and Margaret Andre explain why well-structured contracts are critical for defining obligations, managing risk, and safeguarding commercial relationships.

Contract Formation – Legal Basics
In this session of the Contract Mastery Webinar Series 2026, our expert trainers Sean McCarthy and Margaret Andre unpack the core elements required to form a legally binding contract.
They explain how agreements can arise not only through formal written documents but also through verbal agreements or the parties' conduct, and why understanding these fundamentals is critical to managing contractual risk.

Procurement & Tendering
In this session of the Contract Mastery Webinar Series 2026, our expert trainer, Sean McCarthy, guides you through the critical elements of procurement and tendering across both government and private sector environments.
Sean explores how process contracts are formed, the role of probity in ensuring fair and transparent outcomes, and how evaluation criteria shape supplier selection. This session highlights common tendering pitfalls and provides practical insights to help you navigate procurement processes with confidence and reduce contractual risk.

Express vs Implied Terms
What’s written in your contract—and what’s not—can materially change risk, obligations, and outcomes.
In this session, our expert course instructor, Sean McCarthy, breaks down the critical distinction between express terms (clearly documented clauses) and implied terms (arising from law, custom, or conduct). You’ll explore how terms are classified, why ambiguity can be both a tool and a risk, and how poor contract administration can unintentionally create new obligations.
