About this course
Contract and Claims Management gives delegates a structured, practical understanding of contract types and change and variation management, then builds the skills to apply delay and disruption, claims preparation and dispute resolution in real work. Project management courses from planning and controls to contracts and agile delivery, including exam preparation for the leading certifications. One of our most requested courses.
Sessions are led by practitioners with at least 15 years in the field, and mix short input with exercises, case studies and group work, so delegates return with methods they can use straight away.
