Mediation Training Course is designed on performance-based approach to balance the teaching and practice of mediation concept and skills with designated role play exercises. Mediation Coach is one of the key participants in ensuring the high standard of our mediation training to enable the participants to receive credit towards professional mediator accreditation.

Being a Mediation Coach, he/she is expected to observe and guide role plays, to identify the areas for reinforcement and improvement of those participants of International Professional Mediator Training Certificate Courses as well as General Mediator Training Courses. Coaches will give feedback with reference to their performance in the role plays with a systematic feedback approach. Moreover, he/she is required to provide written feedback on the performance of the mediator trainee in the role-play according to the standard specified by Mainland - Hong Kong Joint Mediation Center ("MHJMC”) and Hong Kong Mediation Accreditation Association Limited ("HKMAAL”). The objectives of this program are to explain the latest requirements of these two professional accreditation bodies. Participants will have the chance to understand mediation practice and latest development in the mainland. They will also be trained on how to effectively handle cross-border disputes. Participants who have satisfactorily completed the course will be qualified to apply for joining the International Accredited Professional Mediator Panel of MHJMC.

An accreditation assessment will be conducted at the end of the course. Graduates who have achieved satisfactory results in the assessment and fulfilled the requirements specified by MHJMC and/or HKMAAL may be invited to be the coach of the International Professional Mediator Training Certificate Courses organized by MHJMC and/or the coach of the General Mediator Training Courses organized by HKMC.
