SUPERVISORY LEADERSHIP SERIES (SLS)

WORKSHOP 1: CONTRACTORS AND SUBCONTRACTORS WORKING TOGETHER TO CREATE A TROUBLE-FREE JOB
It is crucial to the success of a project that contractors and subcontractors function interdependently and have a single focus-to complete and deliver the contracted project to the owner's satisfaction. On-site supervisors must understand and define their roles as representatives of their respective contractors. This workshop gives them the skills and tools to work and communicate with subcontractors to resolve conflicts before they escalate and clarify issues that should be settled on site.

WORKSHOP 2: BUILDING POSITIVE RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN CONSTRUCTION SUPERVISORS AND CUSTOMERS
This workshop helps supervisors identify their customers and understand their responsibilities to them. It assesses their strengths in customer relations as well as areas that need improvement.

• Construction contract indemnity clauses
• "Additional insured" endorsements
• New exclusions
• Shrinking "additional insured" endorsements

CONSTRUCTION INSURANCE
Insurance is just one of the ways that contractors shift risk. Indemnity agreements, subrogation waivers - even safety programs - are tools in the contractor's belt of risk-shifting mechanisms. Still, insurance is one of the most valuable and, dollar-for-dollar, important ways of avoiding risk. To understand how to use insurance to shift risks, it's important to know some of the fundamentals. This 4-hour class will teach those fundamentals.

CONSTRUCTION LAW

This seminar offers an organized and systematic approach to reviewing construction contracts and subcontracts. The student will leave with a contract review checklist and enough familiarity with common one-sided provisions to allow negotiation of neutral language.

LIABILITY INSURANCE BOOTCAMP
The construction industry has been hard hit by the insurance crisis. Prices have skyrocketed and coverages have been reduced and eliminated. Carriers have stopped doing business in our state and ceased underwriting construction companies. Lack of insurance coverage is affecting companies’ ability to bid, complete and get paid for work and their very ability to continue in operation. More than ever, a working knowledge of liability insurance is essential for people in the industry. The program will address these and other questions:

• Why is construction insurance in turmoil?
• What is the significance of insurance certificates? What should we be looking for in them?
