Supervision & Mentoring Support

Supervision is an essential part of professional growth and maintaining high standards as a mediator.

At Mediation Institute, we provide pathways for both experienced practitioners who want to supervise and new or developing mediators who need supervision.

Become a Supervisor

Are you an experienced Family Dispute Resolution Practitioner (FDRP), AMDRAS Mediator or Family Group Conference Facilitator?
We are building a Supervision & Support Panel of qualified professionals who can:

• Support FDR interns completing their 50-hour placement - including or external to Mediation Institute arrangements for our students.
• Provide ongoing supervision for newly qualified Mediators, FDRPs and FGC facilitators. 
• Offer professional support after complaints or as part of continuous development.

Requirements:

• Experience and ideally training as a supervisor 
• Current students of our Supervision Training are welcome to apply 

Supervisors can volunteer their time or charge fees for their services.

If you are:

• Due to completing your FDR work placement
• A newly registered FDRP, AMDRAS Mediator or FGC Facilitator looking for mentoring and support
