09:30 - 12:30
Mock mediation

Level – Developing

Mediation is a powerful way of quickly resolving problems between employees. 

Many people don’t know how mediation works in practice or how it can benefit their organisation.   

During this event, Acas trainers will role-play  a mediation process, demonstrating the steps and also pausing for discussion. This will allow you to see how mediation works and how it could be applied within your organisation.

You will leave this session with a much better understanding of mediation and its benefits. You’ll also be better placed to explain mediation to others.
