Mediation Training Sessions

The Athens Area Mediation Service is sponsoring an intensive training in mediation skills. Those participating will learn to use the listening skills and thoughtfully structured approaches of mediation to respond to a wide variety of conflict situations. Past participants have reported being more effective in addressing conflict in the workplace and in their family lives.

Our training style is informal, participatory, and fun. Over four hundred people have enjoyed this training over the last six years.
