3. What is the online live training set-up?
The IM-Campus team provides a virtual campus room. Participants and trainers receive a link in order to access the sessions. To create a group atmosphere, camera and sound on is required. For mediation simulations and group work, trainers will divide the group into break out sessions. You will need internet access and a browser device. Depending on the access to online platforms of the participants, we will decide, which one we will use (Adobe Connect or Zoom).
4. What happens if I miss a live session?

More and more and especially taking into account the present situation with covid, online mediation is demanded.

6. What certificate will I receive after completing the training?
Participants will receive a certificate from the IM Campus: completion of 120 hours of mediation training and stating that the content of the training meets the recommendations of the German guidelines, EU guidelines for mediation training and the IMI guidelines.
The recognition is regulated differently in each country and has to be discussed with the appropriate local authorities.
Independent of the formal recognition, the training provides profound knowledge on mediation and conflict resolution and enables the participants to apply these skills in their professional or private environment after completion.
7. Why do participants from different countries pay different prices?
Our Fair Price System Policy considers the different purchaising power indexes. We want to give anyone from anywhere access to our mediation program by adjusting the prices to each countries economy and situation. So to speak, everybody pays not the same sum but the same price.
8. What are the main focuses of the mediation training?
The IM-Campus trainers have different professional backgrounds, focuses and nationalities. An interdisciplinarity from law, communication science, psychology, economics, peace studies etc. makes sure to consider different aspects of mediation. The trainers work in different countries and fields of mediation: business mediation, family mediation, peace mediation, international mediation, intercultural mediation but also coaching and team mediation.
9. What opportunities will you have after completing the program?

11. Is it possible to learn and apply mediation skills online at all?
From our experience, online live training provides you with skills and knowledge you need to conduct a mediation. In online live simulations body language and other non verbal communication can be read and taken into account. However, online and offline settings are not the same. In order to experience face-to-face simulations, we encourage our participants to meet with peers locally.
12. Different courses and time zones
The two different courses based on different time zones aim to provide the training to anyone from anywhere. Our goal is to fit all time zones into the two courses. We invite you to choose the course with the times most convinient for you.
