The Mediation Center offers a variety of services to meet your business development needs.

Community Mediation Training - Mediation is increasingly in demand throughout our society. Effective mediation skills are invaluable in all relationships. TMC’s Community Mediation Training meets the standards of the Mediation Network of North Carolina and is required of all mediators who volunteer at The Mediation Center. This workshop is designed to teach you to mediate conflicts using a proven model; build skills and techniques for transformative communication; practice neutrality in the presence of opposing perspectives.
This training is offered to groups of eight or more. Please contact info@mediatebuncombe.org for pricing or scheduling information.

Other Training -  professional development training in mediation, meeting facilitation, conflict management, supervisory skills, and other issues related to effective communication and conflict resolution.

We will customize the training to meet the needs of your group. Depending on the type of training requested, group sizes are limited to between 16 and 40 people. Lecture style trainings can accommodate many more.

Facilitation – A professional facilitator will meet with you to determine the goals of your meeting, retreat, or long-range planning session and to set a workable agenda.  The facilitator will work with your group during your meeting time to help you accomplish your goals.

Conflict Resolution – When conflicts arise in the workplace involving co-workers,  managers, employees, or a board of directors, a facilitator/mediator works with those involved to define the problem, identify main concerns, and lead parties though a process to find workable solutions.
