Who is it for?

This Master Foundation Course is perfect for a beginner who is just starting to learn about construction claims or a relatively experienced professional who needs a reference tool or aide-memoire for this complex topic. However, this Course is NOT meant for professionals who have an intermediate to advanced knowledge of claims – you will not learn anything new.

Course Outcome

By the end of this course you will have a firm foundation in construction claims and, if you wish, be ready to take the next step towards becoming a construction claims consultant.
