CDRS
INTERNATIONAL PANELS
The International Construction Industry is
increasing its use of ADR to settle international construction disputes and is
quickly learning of the benefits of utilizing ADR as opposed to International
Courts to settle construction disputes. CDRS is committed to provide the
International Construction Industry with construction ADR Specialists to assist
parties in dispute with the settlement of their disputes.
The CDRS International ADR Program provides for two separate Panels of
International Construction ADR Specialists. The “CDRS Foreign International
Panel” is comprised of ADR Specialists who are actually located in foreign
countries outside of the United States. The “CDRS Domestic International Panel”
will be comprised of ADR Specialists who reside in the United States who either
fluently speaks one or more foreign languages or is experienced in conducting
ADR processes in countries outside of the United States.
All members of the CDRS International Panels will be required to submit the
required documents that are located in the “International Independent Contractor
Information” section on the CDRS website. International applicants will have
their backgrounds and experienced reviewed by the CDRS Credentials Department in
a similar process that all members of the CDRS National Panel of Construction
ADR Specialists are required to follow prior to their approval.
All members of the “CDRS National Panel of Construction ADR Specialists” are
required to complete the two-day CDRS Arbitration Training Course if they would
like to serve as an arbitrator in order to handle arbitrations in the United
States on behalf of CDRS. All members of the “CDRS National Panel of
Construction ADR Specialists” are required to attend the one-day CDRS Dispute
Review Board Training Course if they would like to serve on a Dispute Review
Board or Construction Settlement Panel in the United States on behalf of CDRS.
Both training courses are conducted by the CDRS Dispute Resolution Training
Institute. All new members of the CDRS International Panels will be required to
complete the “Basic International Arbitration Training Course” conducted by the
Chartered Institute of Arbitrators (CIArb) if they would like to serve as
arbitrators on a CDRS International Panel. All members of the CDRS International
Panels will be required to complete either the CDRS Dispute Review Board
Training Course as conducted by the CDRS Dispute Resolution Training Institute
or the CDRS Dispute Review Board Training Course as conducted by the CIArb.
