Overview

Why You Should Attend

Negotiating and drafting design and construction contracts that clearly define responsibilities and intelligently allocate risks is an art.  The design and construction process is risky and proper risk identification and allocation is critical to the success of any project.  Additionally, 2017 marked the issuance of new AIA Owner/Architect agreements, Owner/Contractor agreements, and the General Conditions Document.  Understanding the changes to the AIA contract documents is critical to representing your clients’ interests. 

In this program you will learn critical contract provisions, including which work and when to employ them as well as when to avoid them. 

Our faculty experts will give you the tools you need to better negotiate and draft design and construction agreements.
