ARCR 811 - Advanced Mediation

3 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 professional -level work in the fields of mediation and alternative dispute resolution. This course will be offered in a “hybrid” format, with both online and face-to-face meetings.
