Contract management and Italian public procurement code

Operate with clarity and reduce legal risks in business
and with public authorities.

The courses Contract Management and Public Procurement Code are combined in this sheet because they both focus on the correct management of legal relationships with clients, suppliers, and public authorities. They are intended for professionals working in legal, administrative, procurement, or tender management departments who aim to reduce risks and operate with greater accuracy and compliance.
