Testimonials
I have found the administration of this course to be better than I have ever seen before. Everything, for me, ran like clockwork, was well organised. It was better than the technical and administrative skills of my employer and any university I have attended. Everything was streamlined, refined. Even down to being sent individual zip files which clearly identified the parts we were to play. This information could have been discerned from the documents provided, but the administration made it explicitly clear, leaving no margin for error and everything was just completed to such a high standard. Excellent.
This has been the best course I have ever attended. The trainers were clearly experienced professionals, knowledgeable about the craft and able to pass on that knowledge to assist me with the development of my own skill set. I was initially a little apprehensive about the role play element to the course, but once you do it you realise its relevance and importance in order to progress.
PDSL was the perfect certification process. It provided an online option that was flexible and very professional. All of the facilitators are knowledgeable and thorough instructors. I would recommend PDSL for those veterans in the field of mediation to brush up on their skills and for those who are just beginning. PDSL also offered a monthly payment option which was very helpful.
I had the pleasure of receiving my mediator's certification through Phoenix Dispute Solutions. The materials and lessons were helpful and well prepared, but not overly tedious. The instructors were knowledgeable and shared their experiences readily. I am very glad I chose PDS and feel I am now very well prepared for practice.
I signed up for basic mediation training with Phoenix Dispute Solutions in the Summer of 2022. I was pleasantly pleased with the training. The instructor was very informative and the materials provided were insightful. We had numerous practice mediation sessions that gave the trainees insight on the mediation process and some needed hands-on experience. I would definitely recommend Phoenix Dispute Solutions... 5 stars!
