Introduction: Professional Mediation Certification (Webinar)

Workplace conflict is inevitable. Formal complaints, costly investigations, and damaged working relationships do not have to be.

Unresolved conflict drains productivity, undermines morale, and puts mission-critical work at risk. Under the Administrative Dispute Resolution Act, every federal agency is encouraged to promote workplace dispute resolution — and across every sector, trained mediators are in growing demand. This certification puts that credential in your hands.
