Module 1&2 - Law of Obligations and Civil Evidence and Law of Arbitration (Arbitration)
Module 1
(From 24th October 2010 - 4th June 2011)
This course provides candidates with a robust understanding and appreciation of the key, relevant aspects of the local jurisdiction's legal system and approach to obligations and evidence that influence, shape or otherwise have a bearing on how disputes may be treated and resolved according to law.
This course is intended for candidates who have not necessarily studied law previously and who wish to gain a firm understanding of all the key elements of obligations and evidential law that affect matters in civil and commercial disputes. The course is suitable both for candidates who wish to go on to become qualified arbitrators or adjudicators and those with a more general interest in dispute resolution.
The course will be valuable for anyone wishing to understand and apply legal principles to a situation under dispute, including mediators, or distil the reasoning underlying a court's decision. The level of knowledge developed by the course is roughly equivalent to those elements of a first degree law at university relevant to alternative dispute resolution processes.
Module 2
(From 5th June 2010 - 19th November 2011)
This course provides candidates with a detailed knowledge and understanding of the law of arbitration, applying to their relevant jurisdiction, so that they can recognise or contribute to a legally satisfactory domestic arbitration.
The course details the law of civil and commercial arbitration. It is therefore valuable for anyone wishing to understand the arbitral process, whether as a party, advocate, witness, judge or potential arbitrator.
On successful completion of both courses, candidates will be eligible to apply to be a Member of the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators.
Eash Module costs Dhs 10,000.
