| Course Outline |
MEDIATION is a process of conflict resolution that
facilitates the communication between people and helps those
in conflict understand the other person’s point of view.
This intensive 3 day course of Mediation Training is for professionals
who wish to learn the skills required for creative conflict
resolution i.e. to develop knowledge and techniques of mediation
which will be useful in your present job. It is also an excellent course to complement other studies for university students or elearners, especially in the field of conflict resolution. Mediation is a very useful skill to possess, as it is a crucial part of conflict management. Managers, human resource officers, coaches -- many professions can benefit from developing such skills.
Please note that in order to become an accredited mediator you will need to complete a further three days (six days in total). Check out our course dates and click here to check out our frequently asked questions.
The course also allows a deeper understanding of how conflict
occurs and how the language we use can affect others.
The course has an excellent theoretical component but also
provides hands-on work with a substantial number of practical
tips included.
Those completing the course will be able to mediate in a range
of situations including; Family, Parent/Adolescent, Workplace,
Neighbourhood disputes and Restorative Justice Mediation *(new).
