SUMMARY:Transformative Mediation Trng May 30-31 & June 1-2 2023 In Person
DESCRIPTION:This workshop emphasizes the development of practical skills to resolve interpersonal conflict and to facilitate mediation.  The workshop explores skills and develops strategies that enhance effective communication and are essential when facilitating conflict resolution.  Role-plays and interactive exercises to integrate theory and practice are an essential part of the training; coaches assist with the role-plays.  Conrad Grebel University College and Community Justice Initiatives certificates will be awarded to each participant upon successful completion of the workshop. \nTaxReceipts:  CJI does not provide a tax letter as we are not a recognized educational organization.  This does not mean you cannot claim the expense.  It depends on each individual’s situation\, which can be addressed by a tax accountant.  \nWithdrawal/Refund Policy: Pre-paid registrants may receive a refund\, less a $100.00 administrative fee\, if notice is received in writing (letter\, email\, fax) four weeks prior to the start date of a workshop.  If notification is received less than four weeks prior to the start date no refund is issued. However\, credit may be applied toward another date or workshop. A $100.00 administrative fee is applied to a transfer in dates. \nNon –Attendance: Non-attendance of a registrant at a workshop without notification does not constitute withdrawal and no refund or transfer is applicable. If notification is provided in writing (letter\, email\, fax) four weeks prior to the commencement of a workshop transfer is permitted within a one year period.  Consideration will be made for “exceptional” circumstances (illness\, compassionate grounds).  Please note that a $100.00 administrative fee applies to all transfers.  If any costs have been incurred on behalf of the participants who withdraw or do not attend sessions\, these may be charged. \nCancellation Policy:  CJI reserves the right to cancel any workshop due to unforeseen circumstances. Decisions to cancel are generally made no less than 2 weeks prior to the start date of a workshop\, at which time you will be notified. Fees may be applied to another upcoming workshop session or refunded in full. No administrative fee is applicable in the case of a cancellation. CJI and/or instructor(s) shall not be held responsible for any last minute cancellations due to weather and/or instructor(s) illness/injury.  \nAbsenteeism/Class Attendance: As professionals who are interested in co-creating a high quality learning experience\, we know that your commitment to the workshop includes attending all of the training dates.  Because we are committed to offering a professional program\, we need to ensure that individuals who receive our certificates have actually covered the full curriculum.  In the case of an emergency or illness\, time may be made up when the workshop is offered again within a period of one year from the original workshop session date. A transfer is the usual and expected option and we share with you the expectation that the transfer mechanism will be used only under “exceptional” circumstances (e.g. illness\, compassionate grounds). \nTransfer: Transfers are dependent upon availability of space in a workshop. A $100.00 administrative fee applies for a transfer of part of a workshop to another date.   Should the cost of the workshop increase during this time\, the participant is expected to pay the additional amount.  A transfer and any applicable administrative fee is valid for one year from the original date of the course. After that time\, original workshop payment and/or transfer opportunity will be forfeited.  It is the responsibility of the participant to make arrangements with CJI to process transfer requests \nEarly Bird Rate until May 2\, 2023 then $675.00
