Course Content

Course duration: 1 Day

Cost: £325 + VAT

This programme is not a timetable, but an agenda for the various areas to be discussed, and is therefore flexible. It allows time to discuss the problems and answer questions. Therefore although it appears to be in lecture format, sessions should be more discussion than lecture. The aim is to explain how the conditions will fit into a contract and then to take people through the relevant contract clauses on each topic, to explain what they give you and how to use them.

The course was exceptional, well run in terms of delivery of information, IT online course but seamless. Very interesting examples of temporary works failures applicable to the businesses we worked in. Break out activities / group examples worked very well and were again well managed by the trainer. Fantastic course, I will recommend to others! Best course I have attended in years!
