ABOUT:
The first 28-hour mediation training focuses on an understanding of the mediation process, communication skills, agreement writing, and mediation ethics. Mediation skills are taught in a highly interactive format through short lectures, group discussion, focused exercises and coached role play.  The training meets general mediation training requirements with the Georgia Office of Dispute Resolution (GODR). In addition, the training is approved for Continuing Legal Education (CLE'S) hours (28 hours regular including 3 hours of ethics) with the Georgia State Bar.

The 12-Hour practicum will build upon the skills introduced during the General Civil Mediation Training.  It provides an opportunity for you to observe, reflect on and discuss the practice of mediation. The practicum may be taken in lieu of 5 real cases observations with an experienced mediator in mediation for the Georgia Office of Dispute Resolution (GODR) for registration purposes.
