 Overview
Understanding routine contract provisions can be difficult due to their subtle nuances and frequent ambiguities. Even if you are fluent in Legalese, managing, negotiating, evaluating or drafting agreements can be a painful experience.


To ease the pain, ICN developed Contracts Lab, a two-day workshop for people who work with or are impacted by contracts. The interactive coursework focuses on 26 contract provisions common to many types of agreements.

In addition, several exercises illustrate practical methods for improving your agreements. By attending this workshop, you’ll learn how to evaluate clauses from the customer’s and the supplier’s perspective; you’ll be able to identify the risk for each clause’s core concepts and to devise potential “fallback” positions for each; you’ll acquire the knowledge necessary to make your contracts easier to manage; and you’ll improve your negotiation skills.
