Fees
The Community Mediation Center charges for training sessions.
These
fees help offset some of the expenses at the center and allow us to
continue to offer free mediation services to the community.
Feel
free to contact the staff at the Community Mediation Center to discuss
your training needs. |
Conflict Resolution Training
Managers report that most firings are due to employees’ inability
to get along. Many families struggle to communicate effectively. Most
people are not taught how to manage interpersonal conflicts. Developing
a better understanding of the nature of conflict and how individuals
deal with conflict differently is a first step toward productive
communication.
The Community Mediation Center offers workshops on the following
topics. Classes can be customized to meet the needs of the
organization – including short courses and multi-day offerings. We
use an interactive style of teaching using theory and skill building
while allowing time for reflection.
