Secure Your Project Management
The International Federation of Consulting Engineers (FIDIC) is behind the most widely used standard contracts in the world of construction and engineering.
Our FIDIC Contract Training allows you, in just two days, to understand and apply the fundamentals of FIDIC contracts as well as the key rules that govern complex infrastructure, building, and energy projects.
Led by international experts, this FIDIC training course combines theory and practical cases to give you immediate mastery of the FIDIC contract conditions (1999 & 2017 editions).
In our FIDIC training, we mainly study the FIDIC Red Book. This book deals with the Conditions of Construction and is based on the 1999 and 2017 editions. It is used when the employer carries out the design. Ideal for public or traditional construction projects.
In this FIDIC training course, we also cover the FIDIC Yellow Book. This book applies to design-build or EPC contracts. In these contracts, the contractor must handle the design, execution, and performance.
Our teaching approach in this FIDIC contract training is based on:
Decoding of essential clauses: deadlines, payments, responsibilities, risks, disputes.
Case studies from real projects.
Interactive role plays to apply the rules in practice.
Gain a solid understanding of contract management, claims management, risk management.
This training for engineers, lawyers, project managers, contract managers, project management and construction professionals.
For professionals involved in project or contract management in construction. Profile validated by telephone or email.
Led by experienced international practitioners and recognised experts in contract management and project control.
A complete learning pack is provided at the end of the course, including real-life case studies, practical tools and usable contract templates.
Participants demonstrate their understanding through practical case studies, a self-assessment and receive an certificate of participation at the end of the course.
