 FIDIC Conditions of Contracts
FIDIC services agreements and conditions of contract are being increasingly used by the international construction industry throughout the world. In Europe, they are used by the European Commission for many projects throughout central and eastern Europe.
 
The Multilateral Development Banks (MDB), including the World Bank, the Interamerican Development Bank, the Asian Development Bank and the African Development, have adopted the FIDIC MDB Harmonised Edition of the Conditions of Contract for Construction. Many bilateral and multilateral agencies have adopted the FIDIC White Book for engaging the services of professionals.
 
 Trainers
The course tutors are provided by specialist training suppliers that are accredited by FIDIC and work in partnership with FIDIC.
 
 Who should attend
The training course provides the necessary knowledge for professionals from government ministries and agencies, private sector employers, consulting engineers, contractors, quantity surveyors, architects, legal advisers and all involved with the implementation and management of works contracts.
 
The course is particularly important for those involved in preparing or managing infrastructure projects financed under funds provided by MDBs, bilateral development agencies and the European Union cohesion and structural funds.
