1 Customized Arbitration Training for Corporate Legal Departments CPR has teamed with the College of Commercial Arbitrators ( CCA ) to launch a new and exciting training opportunity for CPR s corporate members. The program, which will be customized to meet the needs, experience and availability of each internal legal department, will be presented by Fellows of the CCA at the corporate member s headquarters or other desired location. Topics can include: The Role of Corporate Counsel in Commercial Arbitration Working with Outside Counsel to Control Commercial Arbitration Costs Without Sacrificing Results Modifying the Arbitration Agreement to Make Commercial Arbitration Faster and Less Expensive is an invitation-only non-profit organization of several hundred nationally and internationally recognized commercial arbitrators. Established in 2001, CCA s goal is to promote the highest standards of integrity, professionalism and practice in the field of commercial arbitration. You may be aware that, in 2010, CCA convened a National Summit on Business to Business Arbitration in Washington, DC, where corporate users, ADR providers (including CPR), outside counsel and arbitrators addressed growing concerns about the increasing costs and delays associated with commercial arbitration. That multi-day workshop resulted in the creation of the seminal CCA Protocols for Expeditious, Cost- Effective Commercial Arbitration, with separate sets of suggestions for each stakeholder group for maximizing efficiencies in the arbitration process. In addition, CCA has produced the third edition of its two-volume Best Practices Guide to Arbitration, which embodies the principles in the Protocols. CPR s Rules and Panels of Distinguished Neutrals - NO CLE Credit The course topic would be on CPR s Rules and Panels of Distinguished Neutrals. There is no cost for the presentation. The company/firm does the accreditation and makes copies of the course materials that CPR produces and supplies.
