This seminar will cover the current 2005 Edition JCT Contracts, from Minor Works and the Intermediate Form (with and without Contractors Design) to the Standard Building Contract (with and without Quantities) and the Design & Build form.

Other JCT contracts will also get a mention subject to demand, such as the “JCT Home Owner with Consultant” or even the Major Projects Form. Finally a Q&A session will give delegates the chance to ask their own questions about any of the JCT contracts.
