With specific international maritime arbitration themes and covering legislation in England and Wales and the APAC Region, the Diploma is split into three parts:
- PART 1 Law, Practice and Procedure of International Maritime Arbitration
Part 1 looks at the legal and practical framework of international maritime arbitration. This includes relevant international instruments, types of arbitration, the powers of an arbitrator and the fundamentals of an enforceable award.

As the law of obligations provides an essential framework for this, candidates are required to show expertise in it.
Existing Fellows of the CIArb are exempt from having to complete Part 2.
- PART 3 – Evidence, Decision Making and Award Writing of International Maritime Arbitration
The virtual training programme includes focus on the processes followed by an arbitrator in:
- defining the issues that have to be decided by an award
- dealing with the submissions made by the parties
- analysing the appropriate law
- evaluating the evidence
- applying the law to that evidence
- arriving at a conclusion, and
- writing a final, reasoned and enforceable award.

English Language Competence – CIArb training and assessment is carried out in English. It is therefore essential that candidates are proficient in both written and spoken English. Where English is not a candidate’s first language, it is recommended that they have achieved a standard that is, as a minimum, equivalent to the International English Language Testing System (IELTS) level 7 or a score of 94-101 in the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) system. CIArb issues this advice as a guideline and, while it will not require any evidence of this standard prior to enrolment on a course, candidates who do not have this standard of English may be disadvantaged.
