What our clients say

Drafting QITC Contracts Workshop

To have someone spend 7+ hours stepping me through the QITC framework is an absolute lifeline! I am looking forward to being able to apply what I have learnt to my work.

It is obvious that Cameron is a QITC expert. All new material for me but Cameron made the workshop interesting, engaging and very practical.

Thank you Cameron. I enjoy your ability to simplify an otherwise complex framework. Very knowledgeable but with practical application.

I have attended Cameron’s webinar previously and found the face-to-face session really builds on the webinar series.

It’s a great course and critical for anyone undertaking ICT procurement either as business owners, procurement specialists or contract managers.
