This training course explains and illustrates the practical use of the FIDIC Conditions of Contract for Construction (the “Construction Contract”) and the FIDIC Conditions of Contract for Plant and Design-Build (the “Design-Build Contract”). The course is designed to help the participants have confidence in working with these documents whether representing Employers, Consultants or Contractors. It provides extensive checking measures and work exercises to give all delegates a comprehensive understanding of proper management of these contracts.
The course programme is based on lectures in combination with directly related case work through which participants will work on real life cases and practise application of the various contract conditions. The case work will take place on a chat type of platform where the course participants present and discuss a case input in writing. Presentations, assessments and discussions of the submitted replies will take place in an on-line classroom. The virtual platform for case work is provided by Podio (www.podio.com) and the classroom sessions are run on Adobe Connect. This on-line course requires that Participants have access to a computer with internet connection either at their workplace or at home, whichever is more convenient in regard to the timing of the sessions. Work assignments may be undertaken at any time; lectures and classroom participation require being available at predetermined hours. Participants will be divided into groups according to the most suitable time zone.
Hardcopies of the course books involved (the FIDIC Red and Yellow books) will be mailed to all participants who have settled the course fee. All lectures and classroom sessions are recorded and can be reviewed at any time, not to miss any session.
A Certificate of Successful Completion requires having responded in writing on Podio to all questions and attending at least half the classroom sessions.
A Certificate of Participation requires having participated in 50 % of all activities.
The programme comprises 9 sessions over a five months period, starting on the 27th of August 2015. Each session starts at 13.00 CET and lasts up to two hours. The preparation of case work must be made between the sessions and the outcome will be discussed during the next classroom session. On the 6, 13 and 20 of August a test session will take place to check your connection and to get familiarised with the Podio platform. Registered participants are invited to take part to one of these tests.
