Practitioners’ Institute: Transformative Mediator ™ Certification Prep
Transformative Mediator ™ certification preparation and continuing development for advanced mediators practicing within the transformative framework

Baltimore Mediation is pleased to announce its newest offering for the professional development of mediators: the Baltimore Mediation Practitioners’ Institute. The Institute will provide an intensive experience for a small group of selected mediators interested in preparing for Transformative Mediator ™ certification and furthering their skills and advancing their practice. Each session of the Practitioners’ Institute provides a transformative approach for on-going professional and personal development with a Master Practitioner in a focused, supportive environment.

ACCEPTING: Now accepting applications for the Spring. We will begin accepting for the Winter on November 12, 2007. Both are for mediators with a minimum 60-80 hours of training who are interested in live observation, being observed and video-taped in actual practice and engaging in focused mentor-style assessment and dialogue to prepare for Transformative Mediator ™ certification and to enhance personal growth and mediator development and competence. Baltimore Mediation accepts only 5-6 mediators for each intensive 10 hour PI Session. Cost is $850.
