Globally Recognised Certifications & Accreditations

IMC Certification and Accreditation
On completion of the 40 Hour IMC Professional Mediation Course, participants are IMC certified and accredited Professional Mediators and they have the fundamental skills to practice mediation in general disputes. In other words, they are an IMC certified, accredited Professional Mediator. They receive a certificate shortly once all attendance data has been confirmed.
To practice in specific fields such as Family Mediation and Commercial Mediation students are likely to need other internationally and nationally recognised additional qualifications to practice these specialisations in their own contexts legally.
IMI/SIMI Accreditation
The next step on the Mediation journey with IMC is to achieve accreditation through two recognised International Mediation Institutions: The International Mediation Institute (IMI) and the Singapore International Mediation Institute. This is not mandatory, but it is strongly recommended that all participants undertake the simple steps to be accredited.
To be IMI certified and accredited and SIMI accredited, IMC Course alumni must complete two things: a one hour on-site simulation in your workplace and a written reflection on the simulation which you then submit to IMC and we facilitate your Certificate from IMI and accreditation from SIMI.
ISM University Certificate
All IMC Alumni of our Professional Mediation Course have the opportunity to receive a 3rd Certificate – a University Certificate from the International School of Management (ISM) which is a form of diploma. This entails another 60 hours of on-line self-study.
All students on the IMC Mediation Course have access to this self-study course as part of their Mediation package. There is no additional cost. Access is through the Absorb Platform.
