ARCR 805 - Advanced Mediation and Conflict Management3 credits
This course will provide a theoretical and practical foundation in the practice of mediation. It will begin by placing mediation in the context of the spectrum of alternative dispute resolution processes and examining the various ways in which mediation is utilized in contemporary society. The course will then give students exposure to both theory and practical experience in the various stages of mediation – i.e., preparation for mediation, opening statements, first joint sessions, separate caucuses, subsequent joint and separate sessions, guiding the parties to agreement, and memorializing the agreement. The many simulation exercises in the course will focus on individual and collective disputes.This course is designed to prepare students for a career in mediation and alternative dispute resolution. This course will be offered in a “hybrid” format, with both online and face-to-face meetings. The distance learning component will include both synchronous and non-synchronous sessions. Students will come together four times during the semester for face-to-face meetings in order to engage in role-playing and other exercises.
