Dear Colleague,
The expression time is money is never more true than in the case of shipping charterparties. These formal agreements contain clauses providing for the time allowed for loading and discharging cargo, and the penalties to be paid if this time is exceeded. These two aspects of charterparties laytime and demurrage are critical in determining the financial outcome of voyages carrying cargoes, both wet and dry. A detailed understanding is required to maximise the profits of vessel owners and charterers, and to resolve the disputes which can arise. The Certificate in Laytime and Demurrage gives a thorough introduction and detailed overview of the fundamental concepts and practices of these two critical clauses. Starting with a firm foundation in key legal concepts and contractual practices, the course shows how to define and calculate laytime and demurrage, with step-by-step guides for both tanker and dry cargo charters. Your faculty members have years of academic and industry experience behind them, and it is this blend of essential theory with hands-on application which sets the programme apart. A core of legal and contractual knowledge is complemented by current case studies written by highly experienced industry practitioners. Designed for newcomers to the field, as well as those wanting to refresh or formalise knowledge gained on the job, this certificate delivers the skills and knowledge you need to succeed in maritime trade. Share experiences and exchange knowledge with your fellow students from around the world, representing ship owners and charterers, ports and terminals, legal, financial and insurance professionals. Your distance learning experience will be supported online by expert tutors, on hand to guide you through the modules and answer your questions. You can download the course materials to study at a time which suits you, allowing you to fit your education around your work and other commitments. Online tests allow you to check your understanding of each of the six modules until the course ends on the 24th April which is the last day website access will be available. The unique blend of downloadable study modules, expert tutorial support and peer interaction via a dedicated online forum will deliver a thorough and practical understanding of laytime and demurrage, helping you navigate the intricacies of these clauses with confidence. I very much look forward to welcoming you onto the course.
