Arbitration Training at CORD

Building the next generation of dispute resolution professionals.

At CORD, training is not a one-time certification — it is a continuous professional journey. Our programmes equip legal professionals with doctrinal clarity, procedural rigour, and real-world readiness.

Our Legacy

Early leadership in arbitration training

CORD has been at the forefront of structured arbitration education in India. In 2019, we were among the first institutions to offer formal arbitration training in collaboration with the National Law School of India University (NLSIU) — well before online and institutional arbitration became mainstream.

This early commitment reflects CORD's long-standing belief that strong dispute resolution systems are built on well-trained neutrals.
