stage two support programme for mediators
Structured support for mediators building experience and confidence
You’ve completed mediation training.
Now comes the most important stage: building real experience and confidence.
​
The Stage Two Support Programme provides structured support to help mediators move from qualification to active practice.
​
Why Many Mediators Stall After Training
​
Completing training is a major step, but it is only the beginning.
​
Many mediators stall because:
-
they do not get enough opportunities to practise
-
confidence drops without live experience
-
they are unsure what to do next
-
they feel isolated after training ends
This programme is designed to help you avoid that.
Your Mediator Development Journey
As a mediator, you are on a journey from newly qualified to active practice. There are three critical stages, which we all mediators follow:
Stage 1 — Training
Complete mediation training and become accredited.
Stage 2 — Experience Building
Develop confidence through practice, reflection, and professional development.
Stage 3 — Active Practice
Begin receiving regular mediation instructions.
Many mediators stall at Stage Two.
This programme has been designed to help you move forward.
