SUMMARY:40-Hour Conflict Resolution and Mediation Training (NY and CA CLE Eligible)
DESCRIPTION:September 17–19 and 24–25\, 2026 | Online (Zoom) \n8:00 AM – 4:30 PM PST | 10:00 AM – 6:30 PM CST | 11:00 AM – 7:30 PM EST \nAll sessions include breaks throughout the day \nTo register\, scroll to the bottom of this page. \nAre you the person others turn to when they are in conflict?\nWhether you mediate disputes professionally or want to improve how you support meaningful conversations – in families\, workplaces\, or communities – this immersive\, in-person training will provide you with the essential skills\, structure\, and confidence to navigate conflict with greater clarity and connection. \nWhat You’ll Learn\nGrounded in the Understanding-Based model from Challenging Conflict\, this training focuses on: \n\nPositive Neutrality – supporting all parties without taking sides\nThe Loop of Understanding – building empathy and connection through active listening\nCreative Options – crafting solutions that meet deeper needs and interests\nA Foundation for the Future – enabling lasting\, self-determined agreements\n\n \nWho Should Attend?\nThis training is designed for anyone whose personal or professional life involves guiding others through conflict\, whether formally or informally. Our participants consistently report that this program reshapes not only how they approach conflict\, but how they understand communication\, decision-making\, and relationship dynamics. Here’s how this training applies to different professional roles: \nMediators and Conflict Resolution Professionals \nWhether you are newly exploring mediation or seeking to deepen your practice\, this training offers a hands-on approach that moves beyond traditional tools and techniques. You will learn how to facilitate conversations where parties truly understand each other – often for the first time – and co-create durable\, meaningful resolutions. \nLawyers\, Collaborative Professionals\, and Ombuds \nFor legal professionals\, \, this model shifts the focus from advocacy and positioning to understanding and informed choice. You will learn how to support clients in engaging constructively with conflict while still addressing legal realities – without relying on control\, pressure\, or adversarial dynamics. \nHuman Resources Leaders\, Managers\, and Nonprofit Staff \nIf you are responsible for managing people\, teams\, or organizational culture\, this training provides a vital toolkit for navigating interpersonal tension\, staff grievances\, and sensitive conversations. The Understanding-Based model helps you foster clarity\, empathy\, and accountability – leading to more resilient teams and healthier workplace dynamics. \nExecutive Coaches\, Consultants\, and Educators \nWhen your work centers on growth\, transformation\, and leadership\, conflict is often just beneath the surface. This training equips you with a new lens and skill set for working with clients or groups who are stuck in disagreement\, misalignment\, or tension. You will be better prepared to support breakthroughs – whether in strategic planning\, coaching conversations\, or facilitation work. \nAnyone Seeking a More Meaningful Way to Work with Conflict \nYou do not need to be a professional mediator to benefit from this training. If you are the person people come to when there is tension – in your family\, workplace\, or community – or if you want to better understand and navigate conflict in your own life\, this training offers a practical\, compassionate framework that will change how you listen\, speak\, and relate to others. \nProgram Format\nThis online training features a mix of short presentations\, live demonstrations\, and small group role plays in  full-length practice mediations. You’ll have the chance to practice in a safe\, supportive environment with real-time feedback and coaching from experienced trainers. \nSchedule Overview\nEach day is 8:00 AM – 4:30 PM PST | 10:00 AM – 6:30 PM CST | 11:00 AM – 7:30 PM EST\, with breaks throughout the day. Participants are encouraged to log in at 7:50 AM PST to troubleshoot Zoom and settle in to Canvas\, our e-learning platform. \nAbout the Center for Understanding in Conflict and Our Model\nThe Center for Understanding in Conflict (CUC) was founded over four decades ago by Gary Friedman and Jack Himmelstein\, who pioneered a radical approach to mediation and conflict resolution. Drawing from their experiences as lawyers\, educators\, and people impacted by conflict themselves\, they developed what is now known as the Understanding-Based model. \nThis approach challenges the traditional win-lose\, adversarial frameworks that dominate many legal and organizational systems. Instead of seeing conflict as something to suppress\, manage\, or solve through external authority\, the Understanding-Based model embraces it as an opportunity for deeper human connection which supports the impulse to work together towards mutually beneficial solutions. . \nAt its heart\, the model is grounded in four core principles: \n\nUnderstanding – cultivating deep awareness of oneself\, others\, and the conflict itself\nResponsibility – inviting parties to take ownership of the process and outcome\nWorking Together – choosing dialogue and direct engagement over separation or shuttle diplomacy\nGoing Under the Conflict – exploring what lies beneath positions to get to meaning\, emotion\, and deeper needs\n\nSince the 1980s\, thousands of professionals – including mediators\, lawyers\, coaches\, therapists\, managers\, and community leaders – have trained with the Center. Many have incorporated the Understanding-Based model into their lives and work\, transforming not just how they navigate conflict\, but how they relate to others and themselves. \nThis training is a continuation of that legacy. It’s more than just a skills workshop – it’s an invitation to participate in a movement that honors empathy\, autonomy\, and connection at the center of conflict resolution. \nProgram Trainers\nIvan Alter is an attorney and mediator with offices in Westchester County\, New York\, and New York City. Practicing law since 1993\, Ivan traded in an early career spent litigating complex commercial matters and high-conflict matrimonial cases in favor of a more rewarding practice using the understanding-based model. \nIvan left the courtroom for good twenty years ago and today empowers his clients to design satisfying resolutions to their conflicts through mediation and collaborative law. He is a graduate of Brandeis University (B.A.)\, Brooklyn Law School (J.D.)\, and Columbia University (M.S.). Having participated in countless training programs and symposia\, Ivan currently serves on the board of directors for the Center for Understanding in Conflict and the New York Association of Collaborative Professionals. \nMelanie Rowen is a mediator and conflict coach who believes in the power of understanding-based conflict resolution to transform our world. She frequently trains individuals and groups on conflict resolution skills with the Center for Understanding in Conflict and in other settings. \nMelanie has worked in professional development for many years\, including previously as the Associate Director for Public Interest & Public Sector Programs at Berkeley Law and in attorney development at Latham & Watkins LLP. In her law practice career\, Melanie litigated civil rights cases\, including marriage equality\, employment discrimination\, issues involving transgender and gender non-conforming youth and their families and issues facing LGBTQI elders\, at the National Center for LGBTQ Rights. Melanie’s mediation\, coaching and training practice focuses on improving dynamics where ongoing relationships are essential\, including workplace teams\, family and community organizational settings. \nCosts\nThe program training fee is $1\,485  \nA deposit of $500.00 is necessary to secure registration. \n*Financial support and group discounts may be available for training fees.

SUMMARY:Fundamentals of Understanding Workplace Conflict (HRCI and SHRM Eligible)
DESCRIPTION:This comprehensive 14-hour workshop builds upon foundational conflict resolution concepts from our 4-hour introductory course to tackle the sophisticated challenges of workplace disputes. Participants will move beyond basic techniques to develop skills in understanding multi-layered conflicts\, de-escalating tensions\, developing mutual understanding between employees\, and maintaining resilience even in high-stakes situations. \nWhy This Training\nWorkplace conflict often stems not from what is said\, but from what goes unspoken.

The workshop emphasizes developing both the internal awareness and external skills necessary to bring the best of yourself for sustained effectiveness in workplace conflict. \nWho Should Attend\nThis training is designed for professionals at all levels who are ready to engage workplace conflict in a more effective and human-centered way. Whether you’re in leadership\, support\, or team-based roles\, this course delivers practical value you can apply immediately and build on over time. \nHR professionals\, managers and team leads will gain frameworks to handle complex interpersonal dynamics and leave with new tools to address tension early\, reduce misunderstandings\, and shift from managing conflict to facilitating resolution.

If you are the person people come to when there is tension – in your family\, workplace\, or community – or if you want to better understand and navigate conflict in your own life\, this training offers a practical\, compassionate framework that will change how you listen\, speak\, and relate to others. \n  \nProgram Format\nThis in-person training features a mix of short presentations\, live demonstrations\, and small group role plays in  full-length practice mediations.

Accommodations are simple and beautiful\, with Japanese-inspired guest rooms and shared bathrooms. Three nourishing vegetarian meals per day are provided\, along with snacks\, coffee\, and tea. WIFI is available\, but cell service is limited. \nParticipants must be fully vaccinated for COVID-19 at least two weeks prior to the program. \n \nAbout the Center for Understanding in Conflict and Our Model\nThe Center for Understanding in Conflict (CUC) was founded over four decades ago by Gary Friedman and Jack Himmelstein\, who pioneered a radical approach to mediation and conflict resolution. Drawing from their experiences as lawyers\, educators\, and people impacted by conflict themselves\, they developed what is now known as the Understanding-Based model. \nThis approach challenges the traditional win-lose\, adversarial frameworks that dominate many legal and organizational systems. Instead of seeing conflict as something to suppress\, manage\, or solve through external authority\, the Understanding-Based model embraces it as an opportunity for deeper human connection which supports the impulse to work together towards mutually beneficial solutions. . \nAt its heart\, the model is grounded in four core principles: \n\nUnderstanding – cultivating deep awareness of oneself\, others\, and the conflict itself\nResponsibility – inviting parties to take ownership of the process and outcome\nWorking Together – choosing dialogue and direct engagement over separation or shuttle diplomacy\nGoing Under the Conflict – exploring what lies beneath positions to get to meaning\, emotion\, and deeper needs\n\nSince the 1980s\, thousands of professionals – including mediators\, lawyers\, coaches\, therapists\, managers\, and community leaders – have trained with the Center. Many have incorporated the Understanding-Based model into their lives and work\, transforming not just how they navigate conflict\, but how they relate to others and themselves. \nThis training is a continuation of that legacy. It’s more than just a skills workshop – it’s an invitation to participate in a movement that honors empathy\, autonomy\, and connection at the center of conflict resolution. \n \nTrainers\nGary J. Friedman has been practicing law as a mediator with Mediation Law Offices in Mill Valley\, California since 1976\, integrating mediative principles into the practice of law and the resolution of legal disputes. Co-founder of the Center for Understanding in Conflict (formerly the Center for Mediation in Law)\, he has been teaching mediation since 1980. Prior to his work as a mediator\, he practiced law as a trial lawyer with Friedman and Friedman in Bridgeport\, Connecticut. After several years as an advocate\, he sought a new approach to resolving disputes through increasing the participation of the parties in the resolution of their differences. At that time\, he and his colleague\, Jack Himmelstein\, began to develop the Understanding-based model that is now practiced extensively in the United States and Europe. As one of the first lawyer mediators and a primary force in the current mediation movement\, he has used this model to complete over one thousand mediations in the last two decades He has mediated numerous two-party and multi-party disputes in the commercial and non-profit realms\, in the area of intellectual property\, real estate\, corporate\, personnel\, partnership formations and dissolutions\, and family law. \nMelanie Rowen is a mediator and conflict coach who believes in the power of understanding-based conflict resolution to transform our world. She frequently trains individuals and groups on conflict resolution skills with the Center for Understanding in Conflict and in other settings. \nMelanie has worked in professional development for many years\, including previously as the Associate Director for Public Interest & Public Sector Programs at Berkeley Law and in attorney development at Latham & Watkins LLP. In her law practice career\, Melanie litigated civil rights cases\, including marriage equality\, employment discrimination\, issues involving transgender and gender non-conforming youth and their families and issues facing LGBTQI elders\, at the National Center for LGBTQ Rights.
