"I needed a new approach to address workplace conflict and reduce the number of formal grievances in our business. The course was thought-provoking, very practical and I could immediately apply it to real-life conflict scenarios.
The most rewarding aspect was witnessing the immediate impact on my professional life.
I highly recommend this course to fellow HR professionals - it was an important investment in my professional development that will yield long-lasting benefits for both myself and company."

- Jon Edge
Group HR Director
Quintessential Brands Group

"It is not just a course, it is a mindset shift and that is incredibly hard, but I would highly recommend because it takes you out of your comfort zone and makes you see people around you differently. I actually think it makes you a better person because you help others resolve conflict, which has got to be one of the most empowering things you can do in life."

- Belinda Ioni Rasmussen
President & Publisher
Walker Book Group

"The course is remarkable; it is effective both as a way of understanding the philosophy and psychology behind mediation, and in teaching the practical aspects and nuances of mediation practice. I had been involved in mediations (representing parties) for many years, mostly in either PI/Clinical Neg cases or commercial disputes. This course taught very quickly why non-evaluative mediation works, how to do it, and just as importantly how to do so with confidence. I would recommend it to anyone interested in mediation on precisely those bases. highly enough."

- Charlie Cory-Wright KC
Joint Head of 39 Essex Chambers

"The way the programme was structured meant our firm could up-skill all our litigation associates in an efficient way. Learning about the latest practice developments from subject matter experts made the programme relevant and engaging. I couldn't recommend them highly enough."

- Emma Crowley
Head of Legal Professional Training
McCann FitzGerald LLP

"I wanted to learn mediation skills to complement my practice as an arbitrator. I was attracted to this course by the opportunity to learning in a small group. The course was interesting and thought provoking and the group was relaxed and supportive. The most useful element for me was conducting the face to face  role plays - great fun but also a brilliant learning opportunity. Aled and Sabine are excellent teachers - we covered a lot of ground without ever feeling rushed or superficial."

- Karen Maxwell
Barrister, Arbitrator
20 Essex Chambers

"I attended Mediator Academy's first Summer School and highly recommend it.
Before arriving I worked my way through their comprehensive and high-quality on-line training which skilfully mixes text, simulated sessions, interviews and interactive exercises. It meant that all participants arrived with a good sense of what mediation is, regardless of their experience.
The 5 days with Aled & Sabine - in a stunning venue overlooking Tower Bridge was also excellent. As trainers they are professional and energetic: suitably exacting of us students but eager to share their extensive experience mediating a wide variety of disputes. We worked hard but enjoyed ourselves and learnt a huge amount."

- Marina Wheeler KC
Barrister, Mediator and Writer
1 Crown Office Row

"I would say that the course represents a comprehensive and time-efficient way of learning how to mediate, with excellent training on the role of the mediator and how to deal with the challenges that the role faces."

- Stephen Kenny KC
Barrister &  Mediator
7 Kings Bench Walk

"A fantastic and thorough course, with generous, kind but precise feedback from Sabine and Aled"

- Camilla ter Haar
Barrister, Mediator & Author
39 Essex Chambers

"I enrolled in the course with the aim of improving my 'soft' client and people management skills - managing difficult situations and negotiating effectively - and left with these skills and more, along with a whole new set of opportunities and direction for my career.
Aled and Sabine are fantastic and committed teachers who give great guidance and have endless experience to share. The online and in-person components complement each other very well and are very engaging. I highly recommend this course for anyone interested in conflict (and people) management."

- Gillian Bartlett
Consultant
Burson

"I've worked in litigation most of my professional life and I was looking for a career change. The course was seriously great. It gives you a practical insight into what you might expect in real life mediation. The course was engaging and was supplemented by theory and all backed up by top practitioners who know what they're talking about. I'd highly recommend this course."

- Marcin Szulc
Mediator, Solicitor
Principal, Rostra Solicitors

"This is really exciting for us, we've never done anything like this before. It's the future of education and we are excited to be working with Mediator Academy"

- Brian Hutchinson
University College Dublin Sutherland School of Law

"Their speed and flexibility in integrating their modules into already existing course design is impressive. We are looking forward to seeing what comes next from Mediator Academy in these digital times."

"It was achievable, this is a course you can actually do and finish it. The training was absolutely first class."

quotes

Regulation and innovation are driving change in legal practice.

A new type of lawyer is needed who is not only trained in the use of coding and legal technology, but also in skills that AI will not be capable of automating. These include the very “human” capabilities of creativity, empathy, compassion, and emotional intelligence.
