What Others Have Said About The Training
"I am very thankful I found out about this course and more thankful I was able to be included. It was very interactive, our trainer facilitated conversations and overall, it was a wonderful experience."
"This was the best training I believe I have ever been a part of. Mr. Shields was a tremendous educator, evaluator, reviewer, and confidence builder. I would take it all over again with him leading the way.”
"Stephen Shields is a great instructor. He was very effective at engaging us even through Zoom."
"This was an outstanding experience and I wish I had done this years ago."
"Having been an advocate for my clients in mediation, I now understand how difficult it is to be a mediator. I never thought it was easy. I didn’t know how difficult it was to change my advocate hat to a neutral hat. Now I know the immense skills needed to be a successful mediator. Your temperament is perfect for meditation and your examples of how we as students can rephrase the wording to gain trust of the participants was eye opening."
"It was FANTASTIC!! I came in wondering what I could possibly learn after decades of law practice. The correct answer is A TON!!"
