We're offering new and experienced mediators a space to practice their skills and receive real feedback from seasoned family and divorce mediators. Participants should be prepared for honest critique. 

​

In this bootcamp, we will have 6 participants total. Each week, one participant will have an hour to mediate with our couple (played by local improve actors). The rest of the mediators will observe and participate in the discussion portion after the mediation. Over the course of 6 weeks, the mediators will lead our couple through an entire separation agreement.

Participants will learn how to work with parties who monopolize session time, how to keep the conversation on track, how to choose which thread to follow, and what to do in a stalemate among other skills that really only come from practice.
