Course Intent
This course seeks to introduce students to the basics of contract law, and the processes of creating, drafting and negotiating contracts. There is a particular emphasis on contracts that underpin much of the aviation industry, such as sales agency agreements, ground handling agreements and aircraft financing. The course also looks at various other aspects contract negotiators and draftspeople have to bear in mind, such as the impact of regulatory restrictions on the ability to draft contracts. The course includes considerable interaction and hands-on learning.
