Class Materials - Family Mediation Training (October, 2023)


 Welcome!  We are excited to spend some time with you to learn about Family Mediation. This training qualifies the participant to be on the Rule 114 Qualified Neutral Family Roster. Carl Arnold and Janeen Massaros, experienced Family Mediators and Mediation Instructors, will guide you through this training, but there are also several other highly qualified speakers who will join us and share their extensive, specialized knowledge. This will be an interactive training, so don't hesitate to raise your hand or type a question in the Zoom Chat. We don't expect you to print all the materials below. There are a few that we will recommend that you print and we will call those out as we progress through the training.

Below, under each date of the training materials, you'll see a link to a short feedback survey.  We really look forward to having you in this training and appreciate your feedback!
