Boot Camp #1: Mediation Sim

How can you prepare for Mediation without actually attending? By coming to the Mediation Sim boot camp where you’ll work through a real case and then attend a mediation simulation with a mediator - to see how it really works and how well you might do to get the right outcomes.

You’ll get experience:

• Analysing what the issues are
• Preparing the paperwork as an employer or employee advocate
• Attending the ‘mediation’ and presenting your case
• Negotiating and signing off a settlement

Participants have said that this Boot Camp has given them confidence to deal with mediation effectively - including how to prepare, how to deal with unreasonable or aggressive employment advocates and how to get an appropriate outcome.
