24-Hour Basic Mediation Training (East Coast)

Join the Center for Understanding in Conflict for a comprehensive 24-hour Basic Mediation Training designed to transform the way you approach conflict. In this dynamic, experiential program, you’ll learn the core principles and skills of the Understanding-Based model — a humane, relationship-centered approach that helps people work through conflict with clarity, respect, and connection.
This certificate program provides both the theoretical foundation and practical skills to help people navigate conflict constructively. Participants will learn how to shift the way parties view their conflict, empowering them to work cooperatively to find mutually acceptable solutions. Core skills include deescalating unproductive arguments, understanding conflict dynamics, and guiding parties toward productive dialogue and effective decision-making. The training also explores the role of law and lawyers in mediation, and prepares participants to mediate conflicts in a range of settings–from private and workplace disputes to court-referred cases, and community disputes.
