Prerequisite: Fundamentals of Mediation, Family Law Mediation Level 1/Introduction to Family Dispute Resolution, or equivalent foundation-level mediation course from another provider

Who should attend: Mediators in training wanting to experiment with process, build their skills, and learn new approaches

Learning level: Intermediate

This three-day course builds on the foundation provided by the Fundamentals of Mediation course (or an equivalent) by introducing more skills and providing lots of practice opportunities. The course features advanced processes and techniques, as well as practical mediation problems and practice issues.

Presented through a process-oriented lens, this course explores pre-mediation meetings, facilitating joint sessions, and adapting the process to party needs. Participants will be encouraged to reflect on party self-determination and power dynamics (systemic and personal).

Participants will engage in more than 10 hours of roleplay practice coached by experienced mediators with varied practice specializations. Participants will be introduced to co-mediation skills, and all participants will have the chance to co-mediate two scenarios. The course will examine some of the challenges and opportunities of conducting mediations online.

Mediate BC Roster mediators will receive 20% off the full regular course registration fee. Please contact Customer Service to register.

This course counts for 6.0 ADR CPD hours.

Law Society of BC CPD Hours: 24 hours (a minimum of 3 hours will involve aspects of professional responsibility and ethics, client care and relations, and/or practice management)
