What is included
What mediators in training are saying...
The practice mediation sessions were really helpful and I did NOT want to participate at first. I really liked that the coaches were there real time. I liked how the groups were pre-assigned and I got to work with different people. I also thought that the virtual platform worked really well. I'm glad that it was scheduled for 7 half days rather than the full 3.5 days. That would have been too much via ZOOM.
Thanks! Overall great training, one of the most useful I have participated in. Great, friendly instructors who were very knowledgeable and approachable!
