Mediate BC develops and delivers accessible, inclusive, and innovative conflict resolution training. Our training goals are:
We offer training in training in mediation and other conflict resolution processes for individuals interested in entering the conflict resolution field. Courses range from half-day workshops to 40+ hours of theory and skills training. Most of our training is available online and structured to be available outside standard work hours.
Mediate BC designs and delivers custom training in all areas of conflict resolution. Training ranges from short presentations to intensive, full team workshops. Our clients include First Nations, government agencies, workplaces, not-for-profits, community groups, and schools.
If you are interested in having us develop custom training for your group, please contact our Executive Director.
New conflict resolution practitioners can find it challenging to gain practical experience and to maintain their new skills while building their practice. Mediate BC offers several programs for its Associates aimed at supporting them in this transition, including a pilot project exploring some models for mentorship.
Mediate BC serves communities across the lands of many Indigenous peoples, unceded, unsurrendered, and treaty. We are committed to advancing Indigenous sovereignty, inherent rights and self-determination. In order to do this, we commit to deepening our understanding of the histories and cultures of Indigenous peoples and the ongoing effects of colonization. Further, we commit to developing meaningful dialogue and relationships founded on respect.
