- Practise building a due diligence checklist and recording missing or inconsistent information.
- Refresh the Nigerian corporate governance and company filing principles relevant to routine transactions.
- Prepare an example of managing versions, comments and approvals on a shared document.

- Using legal terminology when a simple explanation would be clearer.
