Public-Private Partnership Course

This two-day Public–Private Partnership (PPP) workshop in Abu Dhabi is tailored for government and quasi-government professionals who require a clear, hands-on grasp of how PPP projects are identified, prepared, financed and overseen. It covers where PPPs fit within Abu Dhabi’s infrastructure and service delivery needs, compares different PPP contract models, highlights their benefits and limitations, and walks through the complete PPP lifecycle—from initial concept and structuring through risk sharing, bankability and funding, contract management, dispute handling and orderly handover or termination.

Why Public-Private Partnerships Training is Important in AbuDhabi

This intensive PPP workshop in Abu Dhabi offers a structured, practice-oriented journey through the core building blocks of Public–Private Partnership design and implementation. It begins by situating PPPs within Abu Dhabi’s infrastructure and public service priorities, clarifying objectives, scope and value drivers. From there, it introduces PPP policy and regulatory frameworks, essential structuring steps, and the key technical, legal, institutional and commercial considerations. Particular attention is given to how sector strategies, government support and enabling frameworks shape viable PPP pipelines. Participants then explore major PPP contract structures, risk-sharing approaches, and critical contract clauses, including liquidated damages, force majeure, limitation of liability, indemnities, performance security and intellectual property arrangements.

 

The program also strengthens participants’ capability to interpret and assess the legal, financial and risk dimensions of PPP agreements, map and manage stakeholder responsibilities, and negotiate, supervise and adjust PPP projects over time. Key project finance concepts—such as cash flow waterfalls, bankability tests and lender protections—are explained in accessible terms. The course further addresses dispute prevention and resolution mechanisms, contract renegotiation and orderly exit or handback strategies. Throughout, participants work with targeted exercise sheets and Abu Dhabi–relevant case study scenarios to translate concepts into practical skills they can apply to real PPP transactions.

No advanced PPP background is required. The workshop starts from core concepts—scope, models, advantages and disadvantages—and then builds up to more advanced topics such as risk allocation, detailed contract clauses, project finance, dispute resolution and exit strategies, making it valuable for both newcomers and practitioners with some prior exposure to PPPs

The tools and frameworks covered in the workshop can be applied to a wide range of Abu Dhabi projects, including transport corridors, ports and airports, water and power assets, waste management, health and education facilities, as well as municipal and digital infrastructure. The focus is on giving you a repeatable approach to structuring and managing PPPs across sectors, rather than a single, one-off case.

The course is ideal for professionals in Abu Dhabi government departments, municipalities, regulators, state-owned companies and public-service providers who are involved in planning, appraising, tendering, contracting or overseeing PPP projects. It is also suitable for advisers and private-sector practitioners who work closely with Abu Dhabi public entities on PPP transactions.

Yes. While the workshop focuses on core PPP principles, it dedicates time to legal, regulatory and policy frameworks so participants can relate global best practice to the UAE and Abu Dhabi context.
