Training Objective

Consumer law has become one of the most litigated areas in recent years. Issues such as defective goods and services, contract breaches, withdrawal rights, delay penalties, and compensation calculations require technical knowledge for both parties and resolution authorities.

The purpose of this training is to equip participants with the ability to perform material calculations arising from consumer legislation correctly, quickly, and in compliance with the law. The program is prepared based on current legal regulations, practical calculation methods, and precedent court decisions.
