Advanced Mediation Trainings

The DRC presents mediator workshops on the following topics and will be happy to add your name to a list of those who are interested in knowing when these workshops are scheduled.

Caucus vs. Joint Session in a Commercial Mediation: The Moosewood Videos
Watch two advanced mediators employ different methods to resolve the same case with the same parties.  Using video presentations and interactive discussion, Zena Zumeta and Susan Butterwick will show the mediation of a commercial case using joint session and caucus methods.  Observe what happens when the issue changes from "relationship and money" to "money only".  Does style matter?  Ask these and other questions of the mediators and the parties in the case study.

Where: 110 N. Fourth Ave., First Floor Confrence Room
