Family Mediation and Social Distancing

Blog

Posted 9 Nov 2020

What I have been missing the most during these Covid19 times is physical contact with other people. In fact, even in summertime, when those tight safety measures had started to loosen up a bit and we were able to walk around in open spaces without having to wear a mask, social distancing still had to be maintained. That meant no kisses nor hugs, not even handshakes or simple gestures of complicity such as touching the other person lightly with the tip of your elbow.

This masterclass will cover Non-Violent communication as a language of process, a way to focus one’s attention. We usually communicate in a way that blocks empathy: moral judgments, comparisons, denying responsibility. This means that we generally communicate in a violent way and judgments permeate how we see the world and ourselves.

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.

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

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.

 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

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

 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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

 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

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.

 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

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

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

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.
