Course Outline

Practicals

Overview

Practical sessions allow learners to apply contract theory to realistic advertising scenarios. Through drafting exercises, negotiation simulations, and contract review workshops, learners develop hands-on skills in creating and managing supplier agreements.

Practical Activities

• Drafting a Supplier Contract — Learners draft a complete supplier contract for an advertising assignment, including SOW, pricing, IP, and termination clauses. (12h)
• Contract Review and Redlining — Learners review a sample supplier contract, identify risks, and propose amendments using redlining techniques. (8h)
• Negotiation Simulation — In pairs, learners negotiate a supplier contract from opposite sides, applying negotiation strategies and documenting agreed terms. (10h)
• Compliance and Ethics Case Study — Learners analyse a case study involving regulatory or ethical issues in an advertising contract and propose compliant solutions. (6h)

Summatives

Each delegate is assessed continuously throughout the course via daily exercises, scored practical assignments, and a final summative test at the end.

Practical Assignments — 30%

Practical assignments are observed and scored against a rubric during the practical sessions. Each delegate's practical mark is averaged into a single 100% score and contributes 30% to the final total.

Daily Exercises — 20%

Every training day ends with a multiple-choice exercise scored out of 100%. The scores from each daily exercise are averaged across the duration of the course to produce a Daily Average mark, which contributes 20% to the final total.

Final Test — 50%

On the last day a final summative test is written. It is a multiple-choice paper with multiple-answer questions: each question may have more than one correct option, and a single wrong selection on a question marks the entire question wrong — no partial credit. The final test is scored out of 100% and contributes 50% to the overall mark.

Final Total

Component	Out of	Weight
Practical Assignments (rubric-scored)	100%	30%
Daily Average (multiple choice)	100%	20%
Final Test (multi-answer multiple choice)	100%	50%
