Cleared for take-off series Episode 2:
Outside the law - Experts and consultants

Some arbitration professionals operate outside the law. Is this your path to a career in arbitration?

Episode 2 of Cleared for take-off is a technical stopover on our journey. Technical domains are unlocked in arbitration by experts and consultants. These forensic accountants, delay analysis, technical specialists, and other professionals serve an essential purpose: applying specialised knowledge beyond the law to the resolution of disputes.

This webinar is the fast track to understanding how these professionals build careers in international arbitration across Asia Pacific. Expect candid, practical insight: how to work across jurisdictions, navigate the regulatory and market quirks of each hub, and position yourself for a genuinely international practice. Whether you are just starting out, or looking to expand your regional footprint, you’ll learn straight from the people doing it across three of Asia-Pacific’s leading arbitration hubs.

Cleared for take-off: Accelerating arbitration careers across Asia Pacific is a joint initiative of Ciarb Young Members Group in East Asia, Australia, and Singapore. This webinar series provides a candid, comparative look at pathways into arbitration, from counsel and advisors, to experts and consultants, to the arbitral institutions themselves.
