2012 Course Brochure available to download now
The Global Insolvency Practice Course is a result of the large interest that the INSOL membership demonstrated for an advanced educational qualification focusing on international insolvency. The qualification received will bestow a Fellowship from INSOL International.
In the light of the current economic crisis that many countries are facing and with the fast growing number of cross-border insolvency cases and the adoption in many jurisdictions of international insolvency rules and provisions, the turnaround and insolvency profession faces increasing new challenges. Practitioners and turnaround experts need to have extensive knowledge of the transnational and international aspects of legal and financial problems of business in distress. The Global Insolvency Practice Course provides this knowledge.
The style of the fellowship programme is intensive, carried out over a short period of time in order to help those taking the course to be able to dedicate the time and energy to getting the most out of the opportunity.

" The fellowship programme will be a very rewarding investment towards a successful career, both through helping the development of professional skills and through fostering a greater understanding of different jurisdictions cultures and systems"
Professor Ian Fletcher of University College London, a member of the Core Committee responsible for planning the programme:
" Designed and taught by an international Faculty of highly distinguished experts, the INSOL Fellowship Programme offers a unique learning experience. It answers a long - felt demand for a benchmark qualification to identify those practitioners who are in the front rank of transnational insolvency practice in toady's challenging gloabl market place" .
Gordon Stewart, President of INSOL:
" The global economic crisis is far from over. Businesses and countries are not out of the woods yet. Not least of the current problems are the continuing limits on the availability of finance. So it is as important as ever for those involved in cross-border financial distress - whichever stakeholder they are assisting - to have a strong understanding of the differences in restructuring and insolvency law and practice they are likely to encounter in resolving the problems faced by multinational groups. Our Fellowship course, presented by leading lecturers from around the world, covers both the financial considerations and the legal rules that must be understood in tackling such cases" .
Farrington Yates, Sonnenschein Nath & Rosenthal LLP, Fellow, INSOL International
"This program exceeded my expectations for level of instruction, content, and the commitment of my fellow participants. It has been a pleasure to be part of this class"
Stathis Potamitis, Potamitisvakris, Fellow, INSOL International
"I found the course remarkably rewarding and interesting and the final module was perhaps the richest part of the course, overall. I consider myself fortunate to have had the opportunity to participate. I also found my fellow fellows a wonderful group, knowledgeable, friendly and energetic. The Faculty was obviously excellent, as were the judges. Overall, this course seems far better than other offerings I have come across."
Justin Cadman, McLaren Knight, Fellow, INSOL International
"The whole course was professionally run and administrated from start to finish. INSOL International should be very proud of the course facilitators, support staff and lecturers – it was their drive and commitment to the course that I think makes it such an informative yet pleasurable learning experience.
