Students will be expected to observe and participate in 40 hours of real mediations/interventions in their home community. Students will bring questions and descriptions of real cases for classroom discussion and supervision. Case supervision will focus on mastery of skills, conflict analysis, evaluation of appropriateness for mediation, and an ability to utilize conflict theory. Students will conduct research on a chosen topic of interest and form study groups within the class and within the program around niche areas of practice.
