You will gain essential knowledge of dispute resolution mechanisms, leave with a clearer grasp of their contracts and options, and discover strategies to control costs and protect schedules through early dispute resolution methods. Walk away with actionable insights you can apply immediately to reduce risk and keep projects moving forward.
