Winter 2009/2010 Civil Mediation Apprenticeship

REGISTER NOW for the NJAPM sponsored civil mediation apprenticeship program commencing in winter 2009/2010.  The apprenticeship will be 10 weeks of mentored actual cases in small claims, special civil or municipal court. 

The apprentice will initially watch the mentor mediate a case, co-mediate with the mentor, quickly move on to co-mediating with a classmate then mediating solo, all while being observed by an experienced mediator mentor. Students will receive direct feedback immediately thereafter from the mentor.  This course is designed for new or inexperienced mediators looking to gain mediation experience and skill enhancement.  And unlike the television version of "The Apprentice", no one will be fired each week.
