Training Summary

In this webinar, we explore the often-underestimated leadership dimension of mediation and negotiation. Drawing from his extensive experience, Ian Rigden will illustrate how effective mediators and negotiators are, above all, effective leaders.

They guide individuals and teams through challenging conversations, model calm and emotionally intelligent behavior, and foster environments where trust and collaboration can grow. With strong interpersonal skills, empathy, and active listening, they bridge divides and build consensus across diverse perspectives.

This session will highlight how leadership in mediation is not about authority, but about presence, clarity, and the ability to navigate complexity for shared success. Whether You’re working in teams, organizations, or communities, this webinar will inspire You to embrace Your leadership role in every dialogue You lead.

As a Peace Fellow I always wanted to develop a skill that was aligned with my field .12 weeks mediation training helped me achieve that goal and I also made new connections all around the world. The trainers were outstanding. Training with IMC was one of the best experience one could ever dream off.

 5/5

Trends in Jamaica moved to include pre-trial & online mediation with nuanced standards of practice. IMC’s response is its international online training, live online & self-paced courses. The training combined convenience, cost-savings & adaptability with technology to practice effectively globally.

 5/5

The teachers were just amazing and it was a great, quality program! Thank you very much IMC, I really enjoyed the training sessions.

 5/5

I really enjoyed being part of an international class with teachers/trainers from different national backgrounds. This was inspiring for me as whilst I don’t know where I want to live in the future, I now have an international network and know that I can practice mediation anywhere in the world.

 5/5

I was initially doubtful of using an online platform for a mediator training as I was not sure how we could practice the taught skills throughout the course in this manner. However, this was not the case at all, IMC’s international training worked so well!

 5/5

IMC presents a huge spectrum of the field of mediation with an enriching variety of speakers, approaches, thoughts, and insights along with simulations that range from family to peace negotiations!

 5/5

I had thought that I already knew about mediation as a lawyer. Nevertheless, with IMC, I experienced explorations that I had not previously considered in every session.

 5/5

Everything was so enriching and I loved this multicultural class. I think that was the main learning here because we learnt to be an international mediator because this is a huge cross-cultural mediation. When I need a co-mediator from another country, I will remember you.

 5/5

Theoretical issues will be discussed in the universities! It’s time to work on soft skills that you can’t find in the books. Learning and gaining those skills will affect your career path as a lawyer or legal expert. Besides, you’ll be in touch with professionals all around the world.

 5/5

I completed my qualification training with IM Campus and i really enjoyed the training, meeting with mediators from all over the world and learning about new skills . it was a very interesting journey

 5/5

I can’t think of one day where there wasn’t a direct clash with between IMC’s training sessions and my university classes. At the end, I skipped my university classes and instead joined the training sessions every single time because I learned so much more at IMC!

 5/5

Watching the mediators mediate is something missing in the market and IMC fulfils this!

 5/5

If you decide to take a course at IM Campus, you should be ready to:
– a high-level organization of the IMC team
– be taught by highly professional Mediators with a worldwide reputation
– make friends with your classmates
– get additional webinars as a bonus
– injoy the cource

Being part of IM Campus was an enriching opportunity actually it was an outstanding adventure. I was able to learn new techniques, improve my mediation skills & most of all made new friends from all over the globe. PROUD TO BE AN IMCAMPUS ALUMNI.

 5/5

IMC’s mediator training was 20 weeks of constant learning! The support given to us throughout the course was highly notable and all the modules were well connected: we knew that with each module, we were building on the knowledge of the previous one in a very constructive manner.

 5/5

Being an IMCampus alumnus is one of my greatest achievements. I was given the opportunity to sublime my mediation skills thanks to professional and skilled mediators; but most of all IMCampus helped me to broaden my horizon becoming the “consensus bridger” that I am now.

 5/5

Having a diverse team of participants and especially the trainers coming from every place in the world, means they have their own ideas and points of view about mediation and this gave us a really wide variety of ideas to adopt for when we become mediators in the future.

 5/5

It was such a privilege to meet such a wonderful group of people. Varied and exciting topic modules, carried out by very competent trainers with diverse backgrounds, have made mediation training a great pleasure. The self-study training sessions made the program super flexible.

 5/5

The teaching staff was very diverse, knowledgeable, and experienced. I found the course to be very informative and enjoyable – time just flew by! I also highly appreciate how IMC’s fair pricing system makes this training accessible for individuals with different economic backgrounds.

I really liked the course, it was rich and practical

 5/5

From the perspective of a student, my takeaway was, within this course, that it is not enough for you to study books alone. You have to do real practical sessions and the practices that we had in this training during these three months were really, really helpful for me.

I really liked the course, it was rich and practical

 5/5

I liked how flexible IMC’s training was: anyone at any age and profession can take part to learn about mediation and gain experience. It has changed my whole perception and experience of conflict. I am so glad that I can see a career for myself in this field!

 5/5

I was looking for a course that could provide me knowledge as well as a certificate with which I could start working and IMC fulfilled these criteria!

 5/5

Thank you, IMC, for making this mediator training so interesting! It has triggered inside me a desire to go beyond the course material and to start practicing mediation.

 5/5

The team of trainers and program developers at IMC did a great job consolidating our team’s understanding of the dynamics of conflict and how to appropriately manage it. The materials and training methodology mixed theory with practical knowledge which was useful for our practitioners. The training
