Diploma in Understanding International Alternative Dispute Resolution

Alternative Dispute Resolution Processes (ADR) seeks to circumvent the court processes and allow for settling disputes without litigation. They are increasingly being utilized in disputes that would otherwise result in litigation, including high-profile labour disputes, divorce actions, and personal injury claims. One of the primary reasons as to why parties turn to ADR proceedings is that, unlike traditional court room litigation, ADR procedures are often collaborative and allow the parties to understand each other's positions. The unique Diploma in Understanding International Alternative Dispute Resolution highlights the key aspects of International Commercial Arbitration and International Mediation by means of video lectures. According to the law firms and our policy, the course fees will not be refunded.

In every walk of life, the process of evaluation takes place in one form or the other. If the evaluation process is eliminated from human life then perhaps the aim of life may be lost. Being in the same line, Enhelion is committed to evaluate the process of learning through its courses.

The enrollee will be evaluated based on two Project Assignments, which would test the analytical understanding of the topics covered in the video lecture. 

The most intriguing aspect of the evaluation process is the time flexibility it affords. You can choose to undergo the evaluation process as and when you are ready for the same.

To be eligible to receive a certificate after successful completion of the course, one is required to secure an overall minimum of 40 percent in the Project Assignments.
