Chambers Programme for Continuing Professional Development (CPD)
We are in the process of developing a CPD Programme which will set a gold standard for excellence for our Chambers members.
This programme will have several features which will set it apart from other professional CPD programmes:
- We set an extremely high standard for hours and variety of content
- We will work to a three year cycle which is a more effective timeframe for learning and development, reflecting the cyclical nature of professional and personal development
- The CPD qualifying activities cover four distinct areas:
- It also includes marketing activities. Marketing requires an understanding of the individual mediator’s strengths and the marketing process provides the mediator with insights into the needs and perspective of the end users.
There are two main aims:
to provide a relevant and workable structure for an exceptional standard, and
to demonstrate the capacity of leading mediators to manage their learning and professional development well beyond the highest standards required of them by any professional organisation.
Once the CPD Programme is fully developed, it will be published on our website as a further indicator to mediation users of the commitment of In Place of Strife, The Mediation Chambers, to the maintenance of exceptional standards.
