What will I learn?

  • Discover what mediation is and how it can be used.
  • Understand the essential principles and rules for safe practice.
  • Explore the skills and tools necessary to be a successful mediator.
  • Practice and develop new skills in a safe supportive environment.
  • Learn from the real-life experience of practicing mediators.
  • Gain a globally recognised qualification for a new profession.

This exceptional course offers everything needed to accredit as a civil and commercial mediator wishing to work in the UK, Europe or internationally.  We also provide observations and mentoring, support and guidance at no extra cost.   This is because we are a Charity dedicated to training not profit.

The Faculty's feedback over 25 years is legendary, and it is priced at less than 50%  of comparable alternatives because we do not take a profit - we just fund our costs and our charitable activities in the UK such as the Free Mediation Project and our international outreach in southern Africa.  This means when training online or outside London our fees are reduced to just £960 for the week:  our educational activities are also VAT-exempt (zero-rated) so this offers an additional saving. 


Who is this for?

This foundation course, taught by probably the most experienced practising mediators, represents the key step towards qualification as a Civil and Commercial Mediator and is accredited by the Civil Mediation Council, the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators, and the Bar Council, amongst others.

Successful completion will result in certification as a mediator subject to undertaking the three mediation observations.  Uniquely, as a Charity, the Society provides these for free.  The CMC and other panel requirements may differ. 

Delegates will undertake both theory and practical elements during this intensive, week-long course and will be required to undergo both an assessed simulated mediation and written examination.

This course is suitable for anyone who has an interest in learning more about mediation, whether they intend to practice as a mediator themselves or simply use the skills learned within their own existing roles. No previous knowledge or understanding of alternative dispute resolution or the law is required as all essential elements will be covered on the course.
