Civil & Commercial Mediation Training

Our Civil and Commercial Mediation Training Programme leads to full recognised accreditation as a mediator and provides detailed and comprehensive tuition for any professional seeking to acquire the core skills and gain mediator status.

ADR Group is widely acknowledged as one of the leading providers of professional mediator training and development in the UK.  Successful completion leads to ADR Group Accreditation as a Civil and Commercial Mediator - an accreditation meeting UK and European standards.   

Mediation is a well-established form of dispute resolution not just in the UK, but around the world.  Although the number of individuals whose career is based entirely on mediation is increasing, the majority of mediators include mediation as part of a portfolio career or within the scope of their existing business or professional practice.

"I was extremely impressed by both the content and the delivery of the course particularly

given the need to deliver it remotely. I have heard colleagues talk about mediation training

that they have undertaken recently with other providers and this course would certainly

appear to be more comprehensive than those"

(Barrister)

Why Choose ADR Group

Aligning yourself to the right organisation is key to developing a mediation practice.  It was the ADR Group who introduced and formalised mediation training in the UK, bringing recognition to mediation as a profession and setting the standards within the industry.  We have been leading the way ever since, creating a reputation for excellence in the field of mediation.  We are a founding member of the Civil Mediation Council - the UK's leading authority in Civil and Commercial and Workplace mediation. 

"I had already trained with a lesser known mediation company, though I wish I hadn't.

Once I started to train with ADR Group, I realised how much i'd missed out on and how

much I had to gain by training correctly. The trainers at ADR Group were the most helpful,

friendly, informative and supportive trainers I could have ever wished for. The training

was fun, informative and interesting and I am forever grateful to ADR Group for

helping me along the way."
