Train as a Civil & Commercial Mediator
Civil Mediation Council Registered Training Provider
Develop the skills to resolve disputes professionally and become part of one of the fastest-growing areas of the legal and business world.
Mediation is increasingly recognised as the preferred method of resolving disputes quickly, cost-effectively and constructively. Courts are encouraging parties to mediate, businesses are embracing ADR, and demand for skilled mediators continues to grow.
Whether you are a solicitor, barrister, HR professional, surveyor, accountant, manager or looking to develop a new professional skill, ProMediate’s Civil & Commercial Mediation Course provides practical, high-quality training delivered by experienced practising mediators.
Why Train with ProMediate?
Unlike many mediation courses, our training is delivered by professionals who continue to mediate real disputes on a regular basis.
The course is led by Peter Causton, Barrister, Deputy District Judge, Fellow of the Civil Mediation Council and Director of ProMediate, together with experienced mediation practitioners.
Training is practical, interactive and challenging, with delegates participating in realistic mediation exercises throughout the course.
You will learn:
- The principles and stages of mediation
- Managing joint sessions and private meetings
- Active listening and effective communication
- Negotiation and settlement techniques
- Reality testing and overcoming deadlock
- Managing difficult personalities and conflict
- Ethics, impartiality and confidentiality
