AMDRAS Student Events (NMAS students welcome to attend these events).

Students are welcome and encouraged to attend any of our scheduled events. However, the following sessions are particularly valuable for supporting your skill development and professional growth during your studies.

One of the key opportunities is our Weekly Student Reflection Session, held every Friday. This session provides a dedicated space for students to:

  • Ask questions about the mediation process
  • Discuss challenges or uncertainties encountered during the week
  • Reflect on learning experiences in a supportive, guided environment

These sessions are facilitated by our mentors and are designed to help reinforce your understanding, build confidence, and ensure you stay on track throughout your training.

We highly recommend attending regularly to maximise your learning and engage meaningfully with the Mediation Institute student community.
