February 1st, 2016: Lawyers from the region’s leading diversified real estate and property services company, Majid Al Futtaim Properties LLC, have been benefitting from the Canadian University Dubai (CUD) Corporate Training and Consultancy Services through a dedicated skills development program in legal English.
The delegates took part in a two-day course on Drafting Contracts in English as part of their professional education in legal practice. During the program, the trainees benefitted from the professional expertise of CUD Assistant Professor, Ms. Jeanette Teh, a Canadian-qualified lawyer who has practiced law both in Canada and Dubai; and Ms. Elahe Ghazinoori of EMG Associates, a non-practising solicitor with vast experience of leading training in the field.
The Drafting Contracts in English program provides a practical introduction to the essentials of negotiating and drafting commercial contracts in the common law tradition. As most international commercial agreements are drafted in English, irrespective of the nationality of the contracting parties, it is a program that is proving popular among legal professionals from both government and business entities in the UAE.
The course was part of CUD’s growing portfolio of Corporate Training and Consultancy Services, which offers established and tailor-made training programs to business and government sector clients from the UAE and beyond, across a wide range of disciplines, including: management and leadership; communication, interpersonal and language skills; information and communication technology; and creative arts, multimedia and animation.
