The School program was followed by a traditional round table discussion about building a career in international arbitration, held in online format as well.
The Arbitration School is the project created at the initiative of Ukrainian Arbitration Association aimed to help those interested in arbitration to gain knowledge and access to information and expertise of the experienced arbitration practitioners. Initially designed mainly for the Ukrainian audience, the Arbitration School grew up into a truly international education project.
