Welcome to the SAA
Welcome to the Swiss Arbitration Academy (SAA). In today's global economic environment, international arbitration is establishing itself as the preferred means to resolve disputes between two or more parties from different jurisdictions.
Arbitration practitioners face the challenge of dealing with diverging legal systems and business practices, cultural differences, language barriers, and the demand of fast-paced decision making. Consequently, international arbitration should be taught pragmatically and based on internationally accepted best practices. In addition, future arbitration practitioners should learn from prominent and widely recognized practitioners with whom they are able to personally interact.
The SAA is delighted to introduce its four-week program on international arbitration offered over the course of nine months. The training is designed for lawyers, in-house counsel, and other professionals interested in international dispute resolution. This sophisticated program demands from the participant, in-depth preparation for each session, and active participation during the training. We believe in the Socratic Method thus, participation is limited, and not every candidate is accepted to the program. The maximum number of participants is 25.
We appreciate your interest in our program. For more information, or if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us by e-mail or telephone.
