No matter what construction profession you enter, a fundamental knowledge of law and contract administration is essential to your career.
Law touches upon the construction industry in many ways through legislation, law of contract, law of torts and equity law. This course builds upon the legal knowledge you have acquired in the Introduction to Contract Administration course. You’ll gain a good working knowledge of the key provisions of standard form commercial building contracts in Australia, using the Australia Standards 4000 (AS 4000) General Conditions of Contract as a foundation.
