Course description

Gain a critical understanding of legal processes and legal decision making in the context of construction. This 8-week Continuing Professional Development (CPD) course will provide you with a basis for learning more about English legal systems and processes, along with methods of dispute resolution.

With links to construction companies worldwide, the School of Architecture, Design and the Built Environment is key to supporting your progress to senior management.

You may have experience of construction legal processes, but can you apply appropriate legal decision making? A course in legal rights and responsibilities will prepare you for any challenge.
