Study that Fits your Schedule
Introduction
Firstly, in construction projects, as with any project, it is very possible for disagreements to arise regarding everybody’s adherence to the contract. If you feel a party involved in the contract is breaking its terms, then you are entitled by UK Law to take them to court. Preferably though, it’s best not to let the dispute get that far. The CPD course in Construction Disputes and Avoidance will prepare you to deal with disputes in the workplace. You’ll explore dispute resolution methods, dispute avoidance and the types of claims that can be presented. In addition, you’ll examine the importance of communication and documentation so that you can put these tools into effect and therefore minimise disputes.
Consequently, the College of Contract Management designed this short course to give you professional skills without taking time away from your professional life. Additionally, all our pre-recorded lectures are taught by Senior Consultants with significant experience and expertise in construction disputes. Also, you can watch them at your convenience.
CPD Hours
Anyone hoping to become a member of a professional chartered institute needs to build Continuing Professional Development hours. This course will provide you with 10 formal CPD hours. These break down to 4 CPD hours spent attending your live online lectures and a further 6 hours of independent study using the supplementary reading material we will provide for you.
Finally, when you have completed your 10 CPD hours, we will issue you with an electronic, signed Certificate of Completion. Most importantly, this will confirm the CPD hours you’ve obtained. However, rest assured, this does not require any formal assessment.
