Professional Development Courses – Family Dispute Resolution / Mediation Training
FMC Training Services offer training in mediation for professionals. Mediation is a co-operative decision making process in which qualified and impartial mediators help family members resolve their differences. This process can compliment or be an alternative to the interventions you currently use and is useful in a broad range of settings.
Our Professional Development Course ‘Family Dispute Resolution / Mediation Training’ (which is subdivided into two separate courses, Level 1 and Level 2) provides 6 days training in family dispute resolution. Successful completion of both levels of the course fulfils the training requirement of the current interim accreditation system for registering as a Family Dispute Resolution Practitioner with the Australian Government’s Attorney General’s Department.
