The Center for American Studies invites you to participate in a course with an experienced American attorney and alumna of Harvard Law School, E. Tracy Uche, titled “Drafting IT Contracts That Work”.
We live in a very technologically evolving world.
The ability to draft information technology and software development contracts will advance your legal career and will help you better serve clients from not only from the IT sector but also other areas of business where the use of advanced software and technology is prevalent (e-commerce, big data, privacy compliance, crypto-assets, e-banking, fin-tech, and many more).
While the course is aimed at teaching you drafting and terminology in the context of IT contracts written in English, universal skills gained during the course will also make you better at drafting such contracts in your own language.
The course takes place in real time on April 12 (Saturday), 2024 between 12.30-16.00 pm (CET – Berlin/Rome/Prague/Warsaw time) online on Zoom.
This course will equip you with the critical skills necessary to draft IT contracts on behalf of your clients – regardless of their geographical location.
You will learn:
✅The Defined Terms which constitute the core building blocks of every IT contract.
✅The substantive provisions that are fundamental to securing your client's interests, including especially intellectual property rights.
✅The balance of negotiations and risk allocation, and the process of reaching an agreement between the two sides.
✅To draft IT contracts clearly, precisely and effectively.
✅To prevent litigation and save your client's business from unnecessary losses resulting from poorly written contracts.
