  • I joined IPSK as a student and I have today graduated with a Master of laws in Oil and Gas. The reason I joined this training is because the energy sector needs expatriates and also we as judges need this training in Oil & gas. I found the training on International commercial arbitration very relevant to my work and I’ve come out as a better Judge.

  • I am an LLM student at IPSK and I’m about to complete this course. I found it very interesting because Oil & Gas is an emerging industry which we need to have some capacity to appreciate. What interested me more was the area of commercial arbitration and alternative dispute resolution and therefore I thought this course was befitting.
