Course Overview
Business success largely depends on the successful closing and completion of chosen commercial transactions. With the rapid development of technology and the inevitable need for digital transformation, the successful closing and completion of chosen technology agreements is directly connected to business success. Most often such commercial transactions are pre-agreed between the parties and represent valid commercial contracts.
Commercial contracts can be oral, written, partly written and partly oral or implied based on the conduct of the parties. However, proving the terms of an oral contract is a matter of evidence and can be very difficult when there is nothing in writing to confirm the precise rights and obligations which have been agreed to between the parties. A written contract serves as its own proof that an agreement was made.
The secret of professional contract drafting is to include the necessary substantive provisions that will be drafted by design and not by accident. Strong writing, organizational skills and attention to detail are required by the drafters to translate the business deal into a legal document that will protect the parties’ intentions and interests. Well drafted and effective commercial contracts avoid hidden risks and liabilities and usually lead to successful transaction outcomes. On the other hand, poorly drafted commercial contracts increase the likelihood of claims and disputes often leading to loss of business opportunities and revenue. Therefore, one needs to have the knowhow and make the effort in getting the contract right in the first place.
This intensive course is designed with high-quality teaching techniques following an innovative learning methodology to enable participants to take a detailed look at every element of contract drafting. The course gives participants the required theoretical and practical knowledge and the basic legal and commercial information to improve their drafting skills and enable them to manage contractual pitfalls and draft clear, transparent and unambiguous commercial and technology contracts that conform on a legal and commercial level.
The training course focuses on the structure, terms and conditions of a basic commercial contract and pays particular attention to the importance of contract interpretation as well as providing an overview of the allocation of risk between the parties. Although the course focuses primarily on the general skills and techniques of drafting contracts, it offers particular emphasis on drafting technology contracts as well. It also examines the types of signatures with particular emphasis on electronic signatures and it explores the eIDAS regulations.
It also briefly discusses the factors influencing the drafting process and allows time for the trainer and the participants to engage in various discussion and drafting attempts and to review certain commercial and technology contract clauses. Participants will also be benefited from tools, techniques and checklists.

Who Should Attend
This course is ideal for those involved in contract negotiating, drafting or reviewing as well as those responsible for auditing, approving, or managing any part/s of the contracts created by the organisation.
Furthermore, the programme may also benefit:
Training Style
The programme is designed to deliver theoretical knowledge and practical experience and enhance participants’ skills mainly via short lectures supported by power-point presentations and practical examples.
The whole training course aims at delineating the main issues while providing the grounds for in-depth deliberation and interactive discussion. The participants will be presented with real life examples of commercial and technology contracts and/or specific clauses and provisions and will benefit from participating in discussions as well as assessment and drafting exercises.
The core of the training course is useful for any framework, since it is mainly driven towards raising the most important principles and issues when drafting or reviewing commercial contracts, including specific technology clauses or provisions, while offering certain fundamental tips.
The trainer takes the opportunity to draw provisions from the common law, Cyprus and EU law, purely to exemplify the interaction between law and contract-drafting and the legal implications thereof. The course will be practical in nature and does not aim to teach contract law; instead, the purpose of the course is to help drafters identify the necessary substantive provisions that should be included in a commercial contract. The main takeaway from the course will be what provisions should be included in contracts by design and not by accident.
Participants will also benefit from feedback based on real-life practise and experience at the end of the programme and take away the knowledge gained to be transferred to their workplace.
