RESOLUTION OF COMMERCIAL DISPUTES BY ARBITRATION

The Program brings out the insights on how disputes arising out of commercial contracts are best resolved outside the mainstream judicial court system. The training then clearly examines the foundations of arbitration law and practice. The Program delves into disputes in international commercial contracts and brings out silent features. The program puts emphasis on how you constitute the arbitral tribunal, how you decide on the arbitration process and procedures and the actual conduct of the arbitration process. The Program examines the requirements and process of reaching an arbitration award; and where the dispute is international, the training brings out the salient features in the international context of the UNCITRAL Model law. The Course concludes by examining, in detail, the enforcement mechanisms and procedures of arbitral awards – in particular the New York Convention in arbitral jurisprudence.
