The Interpersonal Mediation Practitioner’s Certificate
Become an accredited mediator in Nottingham with our flagship mediation training course.
Train to be a mediator with the Interpersonal Mediation Practitioner’s Certificate (IMPC), the market-leading 40-hour professional mediation qualification.
The IMPC qualifies you to be able to resolve any and all types of interpersonal conflict. This includes workplace disputes, family and neighbourhood fall-outs, complaints, and consumer and business conflicts.
Over 5,000 people have qualified with us in the last 20 years on the Level 4 course, with 100% of them either ‘Satisfied’ or ‘Very Satisfied’ with their mediation training experience!
One reason for its popularity is that all of our trainers are practising mediators, as well as certified adult educators. We use a variety of exercises, including case simulations, group work, individual exercises, and discussions, to build up your competence and confidence as a mediator.
On top of this, we have trained mediators from all over the world, and our training sits on Ofqual’s Register of Regulated Qualifications, alongside A Levels and Degrees.
Simply put, become a mediator with us and you get a proper externally-accredited qualification, respected and recognised throughout the UK and beyond!
