Unit delivery is subject to sufficient enrolment numbers.
Introduction
In this unit you will examine commercial and organisational purposes of contracts and learn to identify key elements of a legal contract. You will learn how contracts are developed, applied enforced and interpreted in the context of the Australian legal system. This includes examining the relationship between contracts, statutes and regulations, and analysing the interpretation and enforcement of contracts in common law. Through guided practical work you will learn to differentiate between different forms and functions of contracts, and how to define and interpret basic contracts within the context of your workplace.
