Foundation Training Programme in Family Mediation

Family Mediation Northern Ireland (FMNI) is inviting applications for Stage 1 of the three step comprehensive training route to accreditation as a Family Mediator - recognised in the United Kingdom and Ireland.  This mediation focuses upon the needs of the children of separating couples, and offers an opportunity for parents to reach their own agreements during and after separation about their children, finances and living arrangements.  The first step to becoming an accredited Family Mediator is to successfully complete the Foundation Training Programme.  FMNI is approved by both The College of Mediators in the UK and The Mediators’ Institute of Ireland to deliver a programme comprised of generic mediation skills and a specialist element for working with separating couples.  The twelve day Stage 1 training programme begins in September 2015, and details can be found at: www.familymediationni.org.uk/training-careers/training
