Designed specifically for BC Hydro employees, the Certificate in Contract Law is a unique program that will help you grow your skills in key areas of the law.
If you work at BC Hydro and want to further your legal career, you've come to the right place.
The Certificate in Contract Law ladders directly in from the Citation in Contract Law and adds five more courses to create a 24-credit credential ideal for helping you better understand the legal rights and obligations associated with contracts.
What are the courses?
This certificate adds five courses, for a total of 15 credits, covering four important areas of the law: the elements of negligence and liability, the drafting of legal documents used by law firms, corporate clients and governments, legal topics involving First Nations and Indigenous People in BC and in Canada as well as the fundamental principles of real property, including the Land Title Act and Property Law Act.
Each course includes thorough reviews and case studies, so you'll graduate with a firm understanding of each area of the law. Visit the "Courses" tab to see the full list.
