Training for the industry

Fenwick Elliott Grace offers training for the construction industry. Our people have vast experience in the preparation and presentation of training.

Tom Grace has been teaching Contract Management at the Master Builders Association for a number of years. Tom has a unique perspective on contract management, having managed building contracts on a daily basis during his 20 years in the construction industry. Formerly an engineer, Tom entered legal practice in 1999. Tom's classes are peppered with examples drawn from his experiences in the building industry, making the training relevant and memorable rather than theoretical.

Jeanie Elliott has been a construction lawyer since 1992. She has advised on a wide range of projects and provided in-house training to all sectors of the industry including specialist training to other lawyers.

Robert Fenwick Elliott has been involved in construction law for over 25 years. He brings a wealth of practical experience from a career that has included both contract drafting and dispute resolution in all parts of the Commonwealth.

Our team focuses on presenting enjoyable courses that are relevant to the industry and are readily understood.

Courses can be tailored to individual requirements and presented at mutually convenient places and times.

Who needs training

Contract managers, estimators, administrators, salespeople, executives and principals all need to maintain and update their skills. A failure to understand and comply with the legal requirements of the construction industry can prove costly.

Our courses typically include workshops and discussion groups where questions can be raised and dealt with on the spot.
