Career Building

The career building module aims to educate students about the steps they must take at the completion of their training to establish and grow their careers as Mediators. This includes an overview of the regulatory circumstances of the profession as well as the role played by organisations such as the Civil Mediation Council. Students are guided as to how they can acquire initial mediation experience post-qualification.

Guest speakers, who are some of the most experienced mediators in the UK, reinforce our course offering. They speak about how they built their practices, the successes, the hardships and the key support. It should be noted that all our trainers are established, practicing mediators within the UK themselves. Students therefore also have the chance to learn about their formative years as mediators and benefit from their insights.

The career-building module includes a marketing masterclass on how students can better direct their promotional strategy within the mediation profession.

Post-Training Facilitation

Post training support and guidance is a huge part of what we do as we are committed to our alumni succeeding in the field. Having a reliable and experienced support network can be crucial to your career. Although we cannot ensure your individual success as a mediator, we aim to provide you with constant guidance and support through the early stages of your career.

Helpline

All trainees successfully completing the course will have access to a helpline to assist them during the first year of their careers. The trainee will have access to a trained expert who will be available to deal with any queries about career building in general or specific mediations or a mediation-related issue. Helpline details will be given out as an additional document and added to the course students’ pack.

Email Support

As certain issues may be too complex to be resolved over the helpline, trainees successfully completing the course will be able to access our panel of mediators through email. Email queries can include a range of subjects and Mediators will respond to a query within a specified time frame.
