In addition, it provides education and training for current and prospective arbitration practitioners and arbitrators. The Centre has access to the most eminent and experienced evaluators, arbitrators, mediators and experts from many jurisdictions who resolve business and legal disputes in efficient, cost-effective and impartial ways.
