Frequently asked questions about mediation training and mediation careers

Here are some common questions. If you have your own question, please send us an email.

There is no single pathway to becoming a mediator. Mediation is practiced in many settings, including private, voluntary mediation, workplaces, organizations, community programs, and—where applicable—court-connected mediation.

Most people begin by completing professional mediation training that develops core skills such as facilitation, communication, ethics, and conflict resolution. These skills can be used immediately in many private and non-court settings and can also serve as a foundation for court-connected practice where desired.

If you plan to serve as a court-approved mediator, additional requirements may apply depending on the state and type of mediation. For example, in Oklahoma, court approval for civil or family mediation requires completion of specific training hours and additional observation or experience requirements. Other states and court programs have their own standards.

Keiter Mediation offers professional mediation training designed to be broadly applicable, whether you plan to work in private mediation, organizational or workplace settings, or pursue court-connected mediation where appropriate. Our courses follow widely recognized professional mediation training standards and support a range of professional goals.
