Course Description
This 2-hour virtual session offers a structured, low-pressure environment to practice mediation in real time.You’ll participate in a guided simulation alongside a small group, rotating through roles as mediator, party, and observer. Each role is intentionally designed to deepen your understanding of the mediation process: from managing the room as a mediator to experiencing the dynamics from the participant perspective.
An experienced coach will provide live feedback throughout the session, helping you refine your approach, strengthen your communication, and better navigate key moments in the mediation process.
This session is designed for those who have completed a 30- or 40-hour mediation training and are looking for a practical way to continue building their skills. Whether you’re early in your practice or simply want more reps, the focus is on learning by doing, with thoughtful guidance along the way.
Eligible for CE and CLE credit.
