Online Arbitrator Training Course

Online Arbitrator Training Course

Registration for the 2025 Spring Online Arbitrator Training Course is  now closed. 

To receive notifications of future Courses, CLICK HERE.

 

ADRBC, in partnership with Royal Roads University is offering another option for those outside of BC`s Lower Mainland region, or busy professionals who cannot attend the Arbitrator Training Course in person.

The course will provide an introduction to the basic principles of law governing contract law and selected types of contracts.  This is of primary value to non-lawyers and provides a refresher course for the lawyers enrolled.    There follows an intensive review of the conduct of arbitration proceedings, including an in-depth review of the BC Arbitration Act and the commonly used rules of procedure.  The special provisions governing Family arbitration are also elucidated.

Students will learn how to evaluate different types of evidence; navigate practice issues and ethical concerns; and, how to ensure natural justice in distance, documents-only, and in-person hearings.  There will be an opportunity to act as an arbitrator in an on-line role-play hearing.   Students will also have the opportunity to practise writing a clear and effective arbitration award.

This course also supports ADRBC’s service agreement with a number of B.C. automobile insurers, as a pathway to providing Arbitration Services pursuant to Sections 176 & 177 of the Insurance (Vehicle) Act Regulation. The curriculum places intensive focus on methods of determining a vehicle’s Actual Cash Value in the insurance context, by way of a documents-only Arbitration process. Successful completion of this optional module will render program graduates eligible to apply for ADRBC’s Automobile Arbitration Roster, subject to available Roster capacity and the needs of subscribing insurers.

Learning Outcomes:

  •        Understand the basic principles of law relevant to commercial disputes;
  •        Understand the role of applicable arbitration acts and rules of procedure;
  •        Analyze and evaluate different types of evidence;
  •        Conduct distance, documents-only, and in-person arbitration hearings;
  •        Write well-reasoned and articulate arbitration awards.

*Individuals who successfully complete the ADRBC Arbitrator Training Course are eligible to apply for ADRIC’s Qualified Arbitrator (Q.Arb) designation.
