Legal Training Built Around Real Supply Chain Roles
From planners and analysts to coordinators and managers, this training delivers legal knowledge that fits the decisions they make every day. Your team will learn how to approach supplier contracts and compliance requirements with more clarity, less guesswork, and the confidence to spot risks before they escalate.
Supply Chain Legal Training That Safeguards Your Business
Your team will gain a clear, practical understanding of the key legal and regulatory frameworks shaping supply chains today, from contracts and sustainability to intellectual property and global trade compliance.
Legal Foundations and Contract Management
- Contract Basics
Your team will learn how to draft contracts that actually hold up, starting from the RFP stage. This isn't about legal jargon, but practical know-how: spotting tricky clauses and understanding when it's best to end a contract without causing problems. - Understanding and Managing Contract Clauses
Not every contract term is as simple as it seems. Some can lock you in, raise costs, or catch you off guard later. This part of the training shows your team how to read between the lines, spotting auto-renewals, price shifts, and limits on flexibility. It's about asking the right questions early and staying in control. - Contract Termination Strategies
Not every contract goes the distance, and that's OK. But walking away needs to be done right. This training gives your team the confidence to manage exits professionally, whether they're triggered by non-performance, commercial shifts, or mutual agreement. It's about protecting the relationship and the business. - Statutory Rights and Buyer Protections
It's important your team understands their legal rights when contracts don't go as planned. From late deliveries to faulty goods, this section helps your team know what can be challenged and how to act confidently.
Risk Management and Dispute Resolution
- Managing Legal Risks in Supply Chains
Legal risks often hide in unexpected corners of your supply chain. This training helps your team spot warning signs early, whether it's compliance gaps or contract loopholes, so you can tackle problems before they grow. - Alternatives to Litigation
Going to court isn't the only way to solve disputes. We cover practical options like mediation and arbitration that can save time, money, and preserve important supplier relationships. - Protecting Buyer Rights
Knowing when and how to enforce your rights can be tricky. Your team will learn to recognise breaches and underperformance, then take appropriate steps to reduce risk and protect your business interests.
Compliance, Trade & Transportation Documentation
- Navigating Sustainability and Regulatory Compliance
Sustainability and regulatory rules can change quickly, and keeping up isn't always easy. This training shows your team practical steps to stay compliant while maintaining smooth operations, because ethical sourcing isn't just good practice; it's increasingly a must-have. - Global Trade Compliance Essentials
International trade can seem like a web of rules; miss one, and things grind to a halt. This part of the course gives your team a practical understanding of what really matters: when licences are required, how to spot restricted parties, and what steps to take before goods leave the warehouse. It's about staying compliant without slowing things down. - Transportation and Trade Documentation
It's not always a logistics issue; sometimes delays come down to incomplete or mismatched documents. We walk through the key paperwork your team needs to handle with care: waybills, invoices, bills of lading, and letters of credit. The goal? Fewer errors, fewer headaches, and a smoother handoff from planning to delivery.
Intellectual Property and Supplier Performance
- Intellectual Property Law in Supply Chains
IP issues don't just live in the legal department; they show up in supplier contracts, product designs, and market launches. This training helps your team spot where trademarks, patents, and design rights matter most, and how to protect your organisation before problems arise. - Managing Supplier Performance with SLAs
An SLA on paper means little without follow-through. This section shows teams how to set clear expectations, track supplier performance, and step in when service starts to slip. It's about keeping accountability high and operations smooth.
Legal Training That Helps Supply Chain Teams Move with Confidence
Contracts, compliance, and cross-border regulations, any one of them can cause delays, fines, or worse. This course gives your supply chain team the clarity and skills to manage legal risks while keeping operations running at full speed.
Fewer Legal Headaches, Stronger Outcomes
When teams understand the legal implications of what they do every day, from contract wording to supplier terms, they're able to spot risks early and avoid the kinds of mistakes that lead to disputes, delays, or penalties.
Practical Knowledge That Sticks
We skip the textbook jargon and focus on the challenges your team actually runs into, from tricky liability clauses to data privacy terms buried in supplier contracts. Instead of just explaining what these things mean, we show how to handle them in real situations, so the learning sticks.
Stronger Supplier Relationships, Fewer Surprises
When teams understand the legal groundwork, they're better equipped to set clear terms and hold suppliers to them. This training helps them spot potential issues early, structure agreements that work for both sides, and keep relationships running smoothly, with no surprises, just clarity from the start.
Designed by Legal & Supply Chain Experts
This training was built by people who've worked on both sides in legal and supply chain roles. That means every lesson connects legal essentials directly to your team's daily work, helping them operate safely, smartly, and with more confidence.
