Minerva's 'Practical Procurement Webinars'

This month we are joined by Matthew Wolton. Matthew is a partner at VWV in the Commercial Law team. He has worked in the education sector for over 21 years, and with academy trusts since 2007, and has significant experience in general commercial law as well as public procurement advising on everything from individual contracts through to overarching strategic support.

This is a brilliant opportunity to listen to and pose questions to an absolute expert in his field. In the first of two webinars looking at contracts within the academy trust sector, Matthew will be looking at key things you need to consider when entering a contract. We all read them and we all have them but they can be confusing, and this session aims to demystify the process and provide you with support so that you know exactly what you are looking for. Matthew will cover, specifically:

• What a contract actually is and what it must contain
• Key terms to check – what these are, what they mean in practice and what to look out for.

Matthew’s second webinar on 27th November will be a vital follow up covering termination and how to get out of contracts that are just not working.

If you can’t make the live session, don’t worry – registering will ensure you get a recording of the webinar.
