The Center for Dispute Resolution is coordinating a peer mediation training for college students on Saturday, January 23rd (8:30 a.m. – 4:30 p.m.).
This training will cover a variety of topics, including the causes and dynamics of conflict, listening skills, negotiation theory, interests vs. positions, getting at the real goals in a conflict, how diversity and power impact conflict, mediation techniques and much more!
This training is free for students who wish to learn more about and/or volunteer with the Center’s Peer Mediation Program in area schools. This program provides an exciting opportunity for trained college students to mentor budding “peer mediators” in these schools. As a volunteer you’ll have the opportunity to mediate selected cases in these schools and to coach and support high-school and middle-school peer mediators.
Interested – register now for this training! Seats are limited.
