The
International Chamber of Commerce Ghana (ICC Ghana) in collaboration with the
International Court of Arbitration is organising its maiden training on
International Commercial Arbitration at the World Trade Centre Accra.
The seminar scheduled for 20th and 21st of April 2016 is
aimed at providing participants with first-hand
experience and understanding of the ICC Arbitration procedure through practical
and interactive sessions.
Participants are expected to study the arbitration
proceedings through the simulation of a mock case, while the training is
specifically designed to address current issues involving the ICC’s
International Court of Arbitration, corporate bodies and state institutions.
Mr. Emmanuel Doni-Kwame, Secretary-General of ICC Ghana,
explained that the seminar has become necessary as a result of the interest in cases
involving Ghana at the international court.
In view of this, the
resource persons have been carefully selected and consulted, both local and from
abroad, to help undertake the training programme so as to ensure participants
acquire the requisite practical knowledge of the court.
