I wanted to let you know that I have made my final payment today for the course. I am so very sorry this took a lot longer than I anticipated. I am extremely grateful that I could pay this off.

I have spoken to a lot of people I know in my area who are keen to look at the becoming a Nationally Accredited Mediator however the upfront cost puts them off. I have told them about your training and they are keen.

Once again thanks for your service.

Cynthia hosted a mentoring session. We used the elder example as the issue during the mentoring lesson.

I found this lesson incredibly helpful. It highlighted to me that confidence is a huge issue for me personally. I may know the answer to a question but I will hold back due to lacking in confidence.

We also went over how to effectively ask questions to really nut out the issues. There were examples of questions that I wouldn't even think to ask so it was really useful to see how specific things need to get to achieve results.

Thank you for this session!

I attended a Role Play on 15th July via Zoom with Cynthia and two other students.
As there was no mediator identified, Cynthia took the opportunity to turn our session into a mentored role play, and we worked through the elderly parent scenario.

This was my first interaction with anyone in the course or seeing a live mediation as up to this point I had only watched recorded sessions.

I realised during and on reflection on this scenario, the enormous skill level required to ask relevant questions to seek clarity and understanding, without guiding anyone in a particular direction, and how the previous scenarios run by experienced mediators that I had I had observed looked so effortless.

Like anything new, it's the conscious incompetence that is a little nerve wracking. A lot of my current work uses the same skillset, although with coaching and counselling I can ask questions in a different way than is called for in mediation, and it will be a different way of being that I look forward to.

I look forward to participating in more and actually playing the role of mediator!

I found the teachers to be patient, encouraging and clear in your explanations as well as clearly offering a very solid depth of knowledge and experience.

The teaching process felt tailored to me as I received detailed feedback along the way which included prompts on what to work on.

I like the added opportunities MI provides in terms of webinars and attended some of these along the way, which helped me understand the different contexts of mediation work a little better as well as develop related skills and get ideas for how to start practising.
