Canadian Construction Documents Committee (CCDC) has launched CCDC Document Webinars, an exciting new initiative aimed at providing information and guidance about the content and use of our standard construction documents.

The CCDC webinar in March will be on CCDC 40 – 2018 Rules for Mediation and Arbitration of Construction Industry Disputes. Join them on March 24 for the English presentation and on March 31 for the French, both starting at 1 p.m. ET, to learn dispute resolution rules specific to construction disputes from experienced construction counsel.

Disputes are common on construction projects and can have significant financial and commercial impacts when not promptly resolved. For over a decade, CCDC’s standard construction contracts have included provisions on the use and rules of arbitration and mediation. Arbitration and mediation processes are intended to encourage speedy, cost-effective and private resolution of disputes, without having to deal with overburdened courts and an adversarial system.

The speakers will explain the sequence and potential outcomes of arbitration and mediation processes, as well as the roles and responsibilities of all parties, including consultants, involved in construction disputes. If you’ve ever wondered how to navigate construction disputes, you won’t want to miss this!

Who should attend? Owners, contractors, architects, engineers, lawyers and allied professionals in the construction industry.
