Advanced Commercial Mediation Training

Placement on any court roster is at the discretion of the local Administrative Judge and participation in a course that is approved does not guarantee placement on a local court roster. Pursuant to Part 146, court-based mediation rosters require both a combination of mediation training and experience mediating. In addition, some courts may require additional training and experience beyond Part 146’s requirements. Acceptance on court rosters depends on a court’s need for mediators at any given time and may include a court’s need for mediators with specific case-type training or experience. 

The training will be offered online over a period of five weekday mornings.

This course is approved under Part 146 by the New York State Unified Court System’s Office of ADR Program and satisfies Part 146 requirements, with at least 16 hours of civil/commercial advanced mediation training. Successful participants will receive certification for Civil/Commercial Advanced Mediation Training and will earn 18.5 CLE credits. 

This is an online event.
