This course has blessed me to recertify my Mediation certification. Excellent course with great exercise. Thank you for the opportunity to be a part of such a rewarding course.
This mediation course exceeded every expectation I had. It challenged me in the best possible ways, pushing me to think more critically, evaluate my assumptions, and dive much deeper into the core principles of conflict resolution. The material was thoughtfully designed and each module built on the last in a way that really strengthened my skills and confidence.
What I appreciated most was how this course didn’t let me stay on the surface. It encouraged real growth, self-reflection, and practical application. I walked away not only with a much stronger grasp of mediation tools and strategies, but also with a deeper understanding of myself as a communicator and problem solver.
If you are looking for a course that is both challenging and deeply rewarding, this is the one. I am truly grateful for the experience and feel more prepared and inspired than ever to apply what I have learned. Highly recommend!
Thank you so much NACM!! The information you provided helped me truly understand what is needed to move forward in my career!! I highly recommend this course and certification – Great program!!!!
I strongly recommend this course to anyone seeking information, education, or deeper knowledge in ADR, Mediation, Conflict Resolution, or Dispute Resolution. This program is essential for anyone even considering a career in ADR.
I can’t get enough of it—I plan to review the material again and even host an informational workshop for my friends to help get them signed up.
Thank you for offering this absolute diamond of a course.
The 40 hr mediation training is a phenomenal course that provides a great foundation for those who are interested in pursuing a career in mediation. I found the instructor to be very knowledgeable and thoroughly enjoyed learning from Mrs. Haggins. I am eager to continue my journey to working in the field of mediation!
