COURSE DESIGN

Our training philosophy -- Minimal lecture; informative, engaging interaction! Those five words describe the practical, hands-on approach of our training program. In addition to learning mediation principles, you will have an opportunity to practice your new mediation skills at the seminar in a comfortable, non-threatening learning environment. Mediation simulations, small and large group discussions, media presentations, and meaningful group exercises will enhance your learning experience. And, you'll receive feedback and performance improvement suggestions in a fun and challenging setting.

Many participants who attend our program tell us: "This is unlike any other CLE I've ever attended!" We take that as a compliment! (They also tell us, "This is the best CLE I've ever attended!") Our innovative and creative approach to CLE will have you engaged in the course from the moment the program begins until the very end!

Nearly every mediation training seminar we present sells out. The General/Civil Mediation Training Seminar is limited to 20 participants (or fewer, depending on location). This small group experience will enable each attendee to receive individual attention. Register early so that you can get a seat in the course that is most convenient for you.
