How to become an international mediator

When parties select a mediator for conflicts with cross-border dimensions, the mediator should be accredited/recognized in all affected jurisdictions. Indeed, national jurisdictions may e.g. provide that the mediated settlement cannot be homologated in the local jurisdiction unless the mediator is considered as an accredited/recognized mediator in the meaning of domestic law (and practices).

The European Mediation Training for Practitioners of Justice (EMTPJ)

The training consists of 100 training hours, including mediation role games.
