Training
Paul can offer training personally, or through the following organisations:The School of Psychotherapy & Counselling Psychology at Regent's College, London NW1 4NS, runs 4 and 5 day mediation courses, where Paul is the Mediation Course Leader. The School offers an innovative ADR programme specifically designed to develop the particular skills and methods required for successful mediation, and conflict management generally: conflict resolution and conflict avoidance
See http://www.spc.ac.uk/ [for Prospectus click here]
The Lord Slynn of Hadley European Law Foundation, as part of its programme in Central and Eastern Europe, has conducted courses, in Advanced Mediation Techniques, as well as courses for "Training the Trainers", in Romania, Latvia, and Poland. All these courses have been created, written and led by Paul. We have also had the benefit of the experience of trainers such as Sir Henry Brooke, David Cook (from Chambers at Lamb Building) and Spenser Hilliard (also from Chambers at Lamb Building).

LADR - (soon to become Field Court Mediation Service)
Members of LADR, as part of the Chamber of Ami Feder at Lamb Building), conducted courses and seminars in Advanced Mediation, similar to those of the Slynn Foundation (above).
LADR is likely to be succeeded by Field Court Mediation Services (FCMS) and will apply for CMC (Civil Mediation Council) Accredited Mediation Provider status. The members of FCMS will all be experienced mediators in a wide variety of areas of expertise, and will be available to provide mediation training courses at all levels. FCMS cannot however provide official accreditation, for which you will need to attend the 5-day course offered at the SPCP (above).

India
The Bengal Chamber of Commerce in Kolkata (in conjunction with the UK Bar Council) has asked Paul to deliver a 4-day training course to its members in Kolkata in the first week of February 2012. This is intended to be part of a longer on-going programme to set up a Mediation infrastructure alongside the High Court in Kolkata. Depending upon numbers of delegates signing up for the February training, it is likely that Paul will be asking one or possibly more mediators from Field Court to attend with him.
There are also mediation projects in the offing in Latvia and in Jordan, but more on those if and when they materialise!
