Have you ever thought about becoming a mediator or looking to effectively resolve conflict in your home or workplace? Conflict Resolution Service (CRS) has the course for you!

Inclusion of Mediation as a preferred mode of dispute resolution is becoming increasingly incorporated into State and Commonwealth legislation (eg Family Law, Workplace Disputes) with the emphasis in moving disputes away from adversarial processes and into more collaborative systems.

CRS Mediation Training combines up-to-date theory and practice with opportunities for role plays and workshops, one-on-one coaching and personalised feedback.

The 5 day course is broken down over a 3 week period and is all online to comply with current COVID-19 restrictions and allow for a work/study/life balance.

THE COURSE WILL TAKE PARTICIPANTS THROUGH:
