Mediation Services in the Office for Student Conflict Resolution is currently accepting Fall 2014 applications for the Conflict Resolution Training Program! And this year they are offering an additional two-day advanced training opportunity for students in the class!

The program introduces the participants to mediation concepts and is focused on developing conflict resolution skills to help you address conflict you may encounter in the future. It can be particularly helpful to students in leadership positions! One student who recently participated in this training came back to tell OSCR that the program came up in her job interviews and helped her get an internship. Practice scenarios include a variety of situations, including roommate, personal, organizational, and work conflict. Students who complete this program will receive a certificate of completion and gain a skill to share on their resume.

Sessions will be on Tuesdays at 4:00 p.m. from September 9 to November 4, 2014. The advanced training will be offered on November 11 and November 18, 2014.
