Approved Course: Learner Fee Subsidy. Mediation is increasingly being used within Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) organisations; as well as being used more in the resolution of court-based or private dispute resolution. Mediation knowledge and skills play a significant role in the resolution of disputes from: family (separation, parenting, international child abduction, older persons); commercial; workplace; community; and peace-building to name a few. We are now seeing more mainstream use of mediation across a range of areas in Irish society. The Mediation Act 2017 places specific requirements on mediators. This programme facilitates participants in developing the knowledge and skills that underpin the mediation of conflicts and disputes. In addition to understanding current concepts, policy and good practice relating to mediation, participants will develop the critical skills required to be an effective mediator. Successful completion of the course will provide participants with the opportunity to take a separate professional assessment of their skills. Successful completion of this assessment allows participants to apply to join the Mediators’ Institute of Ireland (MII). Through blended learning that employs online and live classes, practice sessions and peer feedback, this module will provide participants with a structured learning environment. Following completion of the module, these credits may be accepted as part of relevant School of Law and Criminology postgraduate programmes, such as postgraduate diplomas or masters.
