Dispute Resolution Center will offer Basic Mediation Training beginning February 1, 2024.
The Panhandle Regional Planning Commission Dispute Resolution Center will offer Basic Mediation training beginning Thursday, February 1st at 5:30. The classes will be weekly on Thursday evenings from 5:30 – 8:30 and will run through April 25th. The training is certified as an MCLE course by the State Bar of Texas for 40 hours of CLE with 2.5 hours of ethics.
The training will be offered at the PRPC Building, 415 SW 8th Avenue. There will be an option to attend remotely via Zoom if individuals are not able to attend in person.
Jerri Glover, Dispute Resolution Center Program Coordinator says “The Basic Mediation Training offers skills that are required to perform duties as a Mediator, but also offers vital personal and professional skills that anyone will find beneficial.” Therefore we encourage employers to consider providing the training to employees as a benefit to both the employee and the employer.
The Dispute Resolution Center operates under the direction of the Program Coordinator and Panhandle Regional Planning Commission. However the mediations are often conducted by volunteer mediators.
The training costs are:
Attorneys – $600 OR $400 with pledge of one mediation per month for 12 months. Employee sponsored and individuals $400 OR $200 with pledge of one mediation per month for 12 months. All prices include materials and resources.
Glover also stressed “We don’t want the cost to be a barrier to anyone attending the training. If the cost is going to prevent you from attending, please call and we will be happy to discuss options for you.”
