In-House Courses
Our in-house courses are designed for organisations who need to raise the contractual awareness of their staff and project teams. We offer two main in-house training options:
- Option 1 – “Off the shelf” – These courses are designed to bring project teams and office staff up to speed on a specific standard form of contract (e.g. NEC, JCT, FIDIC, RIAI or Public Works).
- Option 2 – “Project specific” – These courses incorporate project specific contract amendments and other documents to train project teams on the actual contract they are (or will be) using. As an optional extra, we can also draft template notifications etc. as part of these courses and incorporate them within our training materials
Our in-house courses are charged per session, not per person – meaning organisations can have large numbers of staff trained at no extra cost.
