Tech Contracts Academy® has premiered a free sample lesson on our YouTube channel — this time from The Indeminar, our focused course on indemnity clauses. This short video tackles one of the most confusing and consistently misunderstood areas in IT contracting: how indemnity language actually works, what the key terms mean, and why the vocabulary varies so much from contract to contract.
Just like our other sample lessons, this excerpt offers a clear, plain‑English explanation designed for busy contract professionals who need practical guidance, not legal theory.
About the Video
This upcoming video, The Indeminar – Sample Lesson, is a complimentary excerpt from our on‑demand course, The Indeminar. It provides a grounded, real‑world walkthrough of indemnity terminology — including why some clauses use “indemnify,” and why so‑called “mutual” indemnities often aren’t truly mutual at all.
The lesson focuses on what negotiators actually need: a practical understanding of indemnity vocabulary so you can draft, review, and negotiate these clauses with confidence.
What Viewers Will Learn
The sample lesson breaks down several key questions that come up in nearly every technology contract negotiation, including:
- What “indemnify,” “hold harmless,” and “defend” really mean
- Why some indemnity clauses avoid the word indemnify entirely
- How “mutual” indemnities are often misunderstood
This short video is designed to make a notoriously dense topic feel simple, clear, and manageable.
Who It’s For
Our courses are built for lawyers, contract managers, procurement professionals, and anyone who negotiates or reviews technology agreements.
