OVERVIEW

The Must-know for All Businesses

Contracts are the bloodline of a business. The rights and liabilities of a business largely centre on what is stated in the contract.

Even though lawyers are mostly involved in contract drafting, there is so much more a business or individual can do to better protect their own interests.

Specially designed for non-lawyers, this course will provide participants with a better understanding of:

  • Terms of a typical contract
  • Contract items to pay attention to
  • Contract items to avoid

This course fulfils part of the Professional Certificate in AI For Excellence in Digital Marketing requirement. For more details, click here or contact us directly.

Topic Coverage

The course will address the following:

  • Essentials of a Contract: eg: Can there be a verbal contract?
  • Making Changes to the Contract: eg: Can a business reduce their employees’ pay during a downturn
  • Express Terms in the Contract: eg: Must contractual terms be fair to be valid?
  • Implied Terms in the Contract: eg: Is it implied that both parties must act in good faith in carrying out the contract?
  • Factors affecting Validity of a Contract: eg: Can a business complain if the other party concealed certain information before entering into the contract?
  • Termination of the Contract: eg: How can a business retain the greatest flexibility to exit a contract
  • Remedies for Breach of Contract: eg: Should a business incorporate a pre-agreed damages clause, and is it valid?

Real-life cases and examples will be covered during the course. There will be a contract drafting exercise to help participants better understand and appreciate the terms of a typical contract.
