Training

Interested in learning how to handle conflict better?
Keen to become a mediator or restorative practitioner?
Wanting to learn skills in managing conflict for use in your own community or organisation?
Scottish Community Mediation Centre has been delivering high quality and affordable training for over 25 years. Our courses are accredited, highly interactive and have clear learning objectives.
Feedback from participants has been consistently good – in 2025 100% of evaluations rated our training as either good or excellent.
It was the most interactive training I had ever been on and this was reflected in the speed of learning and ability to get a bit more confident with the different mediation skills over a short period of time.
