Training

At the Transformative Mediation Institute, our training programs are grounded in up-to-date research, and delivered in lively, interactive and thought-provoking formats. We have designed innovative training materials and approaches that have been emulated and used all over the world. We keep our training groups small, in order to provide plenty of opportunities for practice, coaching, and feedback.

The focus of our current offerings is to help mediators, managers, lawyers and other third party interveners in conflict build their own communication and intervention skills. We schedule a number of these regular training programs throughout the year:

Master Class Transformative Mediation: Theory & Practice
Transformative Mediation for Advanced Practitioners
Shifts: Understanding Conflict Escalation & De-escalation
Party Autonomy as a Discursive Practice
Empathy as a Discursive Practice

We are also happy to schedule a training program for an interested group upon request, and to design special programs upon request.
