OVERVIEW
Arbitral institutions are important stakeholders in the field of international arbitration, but the nature and importance of their role have often been overlooked. The course seeks to introduce participants to the role and function of arbitral institutions in guiding and shaping the practice and development of international arbitration, and to the complex issues that arbitral institutions face in the administration of arbitrations, including, among others, the appointment of arbitrators and the issuance of arbitral rules and practice notes.
The course will be taught by experienced guest instructors from the Singapore International Arbitration Centre (SIAC) and by other leading arbitration practitioners, who will share their unique, practical perspectives on administering or advancing a particular case. After each session involving SIAC instructors, participants will solidify their understanding through a review of case law and class presentations. Participants keen on developing a practice in international dispute resolution will find this course of direct relevance.
