BASICS OF MEDIATION
A Comprehensive Introduction to Mediation
Introduced in 1977, Community Boards’ Basics of Mediation introduces core conflict resolution skills training designed for managers, human resource professionals, attorneys, ombudsmen, community mediators and others who must intervene in disputes as part of their work. With this 40-hour training, participants gain the knowledge, techniques and skills needed to handle a broad range of disputes. This training is required for those wishing to become volunteer mediators.
Graduates of Basics receive these additional benefits:
+ Mediation practicum through Community Boards' Neighborhood Mediation Program
+ Quarterly Mediation Masters workshops
+ Discounted tuition for Advanced ADR Training series

CONFLICT MANAGEMENT IN THE WORKPLACE
For Nonprofit Organizations, Public Agencies and Businesses
We offer trainings with practical approaches and specific techniques for managing workplace-related conflicts. Participants learn how to respond to confrontation in a way that defuses hostility and facilitates peaceful problem solving all within the workplace’s existing organization. Benefits include: improved communication; conflicts resolved at their early stages to prevent escalated miscommunication and disputes; stress reduction and increased productivity.
Community Boards provides individually designed training tailored to meet each client’s specific needs and goals. Training topics include:
= Communication
= Anger Management
= Principled Negotiation
= Facilitation
= Mediation
= Intercultural Communication and Conflict Resolution
= Understanding and Appreciating Diversity
To discuss your needs and how Community Boards might be of assistance, please contact Liora Kahn, Mediation Program Manager at (415) 920-3820, x109 or by email: lkahn@communityboards.org.
PEER MEDIATION TRAINING FOR SCHOOLS & YOUTH AGENCIES
Peer Mediation & Conflict Resolution for Staff
Community Boards’ Conflict Manager Program was first introduced in 1982. The effectiveness and longevity of peer mediation programs can be greatly enhanced with a school-wide application of conflict resolution skills and principles involving all school constituencies: teachers, administrators, parents, and students. Training and consultation for these “whole school” applications may include: combing peer mediation with conflict resolution classroom curricula; building culturally sensitive peer mediation programs; and managing a range of adult conflicts.
