The Advanced Investigation Skills course offered a comprehensive view of the investigation process, introducing insightful perspectives I hadn’t previously considered. I particularly valued the group work and team discussions, which enhanced collaborative learning. The explanation of key concepts—such as the 51% threshold and how to manage previous allegations in relation to new findings, was especially useful. Overall, the course significantly contributed to my growth in knowledge and helped me develop a more strategic approach to investigations

The session was a great opportunity to benchmark my knowledge, test our thinking and generate new ideas. The session was informative and thought provoking, with expert speakers and like-minded attendees.

I attended this course 3 months ago and found the training really engaging and interesting. I have used the training a number times since completion. The training was invaluable in order to help me complete comprehensive investigation reports.

TCM have been brilliant from the start of the course to the end. The trainer and the additional assessors on the day really helped with setting the scene and gave clear constructive feedback which was great for me.

I wasn’t quite sure what to expect but I have really enjoyed this course. Began as a complete novice feeling very much in the dark but completed so very much more confident in my potential as a Mediator. Thank you TCM!

I found the entire experience invigorating and really rewarding. From a people perspective, this is a very human approach to giving humans a voice.

The course I attended was well structured, well delivered and crafted to create ample time to teach the subject matter but to also apply the concepts to scenarios both provided by the course provider and the attendees. The use of time for debate and critical drilling in to contentious or complex/layered themes was excellent. I highly recommend this course.

“Fantastic training, really supported my confidence in carrying out fair and equitable investigations. Would highly recommend”

“The Routes to Resolution course at The TCM Group was excellent. I gained valuable insights from learning and revisiting the underpinning theories of conflict management and practicing how to apply them. I now have key acronyms like PIN and BIN at the forefront of my mind when using these models. I also have a much deeper understanding of empathy and its practical application, the concept of healthy venting, and the conflict escalation curve. Additionally, I will greatly benefit from the comprehensive knowledge I’ve gained of the resolution framework provided during the course.”

“Six months ago, I completed the TCM Advanced Investigations course, and it was an incredibly beneficial experience. The course provided deep insights and practical tools that have significantly enhanced my understanding and skills. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking to advance their expertise in this field.”

Great experience! Wonderful journey from singing up to last minute of the training

But I genuinely really enjoyed each day and all the opportunities provided to practice the skills we were learning, in a safe environment. Has definitely filled me with confidence and I look forward to using these new skills in the workplace.

The course was meticulously designed, blending theoretical knowledge with practical, hands-on learning that has significantly enhanced my mediation skills. The trainers were not only experts in their field but also incredibly approachable and supportive, ensuring that every participant felt comfortable and engaged throughout the sessions.

What stood out most to me was the emphasis on real-world application. The training included a variety of role-playing exercises and case studies that mirrored the complexities of actual mediation scenarios, allowing me to build confidence and competence in a safe, controlled environment. Additionally, the resources provided were comprehensive and will serve as a lasting reference as I continue to develop in this field.

The insights I gained into conflict resolution, active listening, and negotiation have already proven beneficial in my professional interactions. I left the training feeling empowered and equipped with a toolkit of strategies that I can apply immediately in my work.

I highly recommend TCM Group’s mediation training to anyone looking to deepen their understanding of mediation or to refine their existing skills. It’s an investment in professional development that truly pays off.”

“I finally conducted my first mediation in the office and the outcome was successful. The Review, Refresh, and Reassure session held earlier in the year helped me to remember and be more confident in the assignment. Thank you, TCM team. You are doing an amazing job!”

Cameron was my first point of contact and I found him incredibly helpful, responsive and insightful. The training itself was inclusive, wholesome and supportive of my needs and condition. Andy was particularly good and the whole process was insightful and enjoyable.

This was a fabulous course – well structured and professionally run and I now have the skills and confidence to be an effective mediator Thank You!

TCM training was recommended to me by someone I know, I researched the workplace mediation training and the information provided on the website was excellent. I chose a date that could work for me and booked the time off work and booked myself on the course a few months ahead. The pre-course call was clear and explained everything along with providing access to the delegate zone. The training was excellent and professionally delivered for professionals. The pace was good, the response to questions (there were a lot of questions) was excellent and never rushed. The practical work with other delegates was first class and the assessment was also exceptionally well run. All round experience was excellent. Would highly recommend.

This is my first training course with TCM. The experience has been very worth wild and the content was excellent. Elizabeth as the course tutor was excellent also. I felt that the group size was just right and there was a good range of experience that all involved could work with. Many thanks for a thoroughly enjoyable experience.

I want to say a huge thanks to Elizabeth for her facilitation these last few days, it was held at such a great pace – her knowledge and understanding of investigation is very evident, yet she allowed the other participants to input. I wanted to share how she managed the large group and small group set up so smooth and I enjoyed it thoroughly. Also, I have never been in a group before whereby the facilitator allowed questions at anytime and it was so well done, I was impressed by that but equally felt at ease to jump in and ask away when the question came up for me. Thanks again!

This is one of the best and most challenging courses I have ever done. I learned such a lot about myself and my own responses to conflict as well as how to mediate between others. The trainer was extremely knowledgeable and supportive.

I agreed to attend a two day mediation training course with TCM recommended by my Company . I have to say I wasn’t that enthusiastic in attending but WOW what a great course, great presenter and I seriously really enjoyed the hands-on role play. I have to say the presenter was so good, she made the training interesting, funny at time with her humour and expertise. So pleased I attended and didn’t duck out. I have done on to do mediation with some colleagues and look forward to the next time I’m needed.

A great day, nice and relaxed pace. Came away feeling more empowered and knowing the reasons behind people’s reactions to conflict situations.

The training was very good and relevant to the situations I deal with on daily basis as an HR Manager. Chris did a great job in ensuring we were aware of the theory behind what we were learning and also the importance of focusing on the Survivor. Overall I loved the practical sessions where we got to interview each other. Thank you

This was one of the best experiences I have had throughout my career, hence they provided a vital and comprehensive skills and knowledge that will make me stands among others.

The admin and onboarding was excellent; trainer very knowledgeable high EQ.

The course really unlocked some simple but powerful techniques that will be easy to apply and will make a significant impact.

Great course, Alan was very engaging and made it light-hearted but very informative and catered for all our needs as a group. Always happy to answer questions, wherever they were.

The accredited workplace mediator course was amazing and massively useful. I thought I knew how to mediate before this but clearly I was wrong. Alan and Gemma’s skills and knowledge were so helpful and second to none

Fantastic week well spent with the TCM tutors, Assessors and fellow course delegates. Feel so much more confident to fully participate as a mediator in the room, rather helping individuals for going into the room. Thank you Alan and TCM team

One of the best courses I have been on for a long time. TCM facilitator was thorough and supportive.

With such expert and empathetic facilitation, the course, although challenging, was a fantastic opportunity to build confidence and develop skills in mediation.

Great investigations skills training with a very practical angle

This is a brilliant course facilitated by an outstanding tutor. You will learn everything you need to know and more

Great course and training approach that brought practical and relatable examples to bring the content to life. Thought provoking; I can see how the approach can translate to less formal mediation situations and emphasises for me the benefits of early intervention.

“Fantastic training course – really well delivered. It was done in a way that built up our understanding of the theory and then a chance to put it into practice, one stage at a time before putting all stages together. This was a great way of consolidating our learning.”

The course was informative, well structured and provided great insight. Our trainer Alan, made us all feel comfortable and supported, and the absolute wealth of knowledge and experience he was able to share was invaluable

I feel much more confident running investigations and supporting staff through conducting their own investigations. It gave me the reassurance that I’ve been doing well so far, but some brilliant tips and structures to improve my investigations in future

“This course was extremely useful with lots of very good information and well presented. Although I haven’t has the opportunity yet to use the skills gained, I’m confident when I do, that they will be very helpful.”

I loved the Advanced Investigation Skills course! The trainer, venue, course materials, case studies and my fellow delegates were all brilliant and I have learnt a huge amount in three days that will really benefit my current and future roles.

Fantastic transformative course

Great training from TCM on their approach to team facilitation.

TCM a professional all round training HR company. I have been in sessions with a number of TCM Colleagues very committed and intense. Would be happy to attend any TCM event.

The TCM approach to developing a person-centred workplace where values and purpose align with the needs of the business, and the aspirations of the workforce really resonated with me I would recommend attending one of their webinars to learn more about developing a transformational culture!

Bola was a very engaging and knowledgeable trainer who made the session informative and interesting. He was brilliant to listen to and I would welcome the opportunity to attend further training with hi,

Insightful well lead Practical Mediation training that made me question how to approach mediation and stretch my people skills!

“I had an incredible cognitive interviewing skills training. I really appreciate the extra handouts given which has been incredibly helpful. I have more confidence during employee investigations to ask the right questions. Thank you so much.”

Really worthwhile course to attend, I took so many learnings away

Really enjoyed learning new ideas about managing conflict, delivery of course excellent

The training provided by TCM was both challenging and purposeful. I made a network of great contacts and I feel that I have developed my skill set from the sessions on both investigation skills and mediation.

I am quite new to interviewing for investigation purposes and found the course extremely motivating. Terry our trainer gave us a wealth of information in a concise, easy to take-away manner. It is also great I can refer back to what was discussed in our delegate pack. Thank you.

Would highly recommend this is a great course for learning the framework and developing your skills in mediation

Marie was brilliant, very knowledgeable and inspiring. I loved the team I was with and the course exceed my expectations. its the best
course I have ever done.

A first class experience, lots of valuable learning and content to take back to my organisation

“Our collaboration with the TCM Group, started with an inspiring session delivered by David Liddle, as part of Morningstar’s 2023 Global Week of Learning. This session has been specifically designed to give leaders some guidelines in understanding the culture they create and the teams they develop, under the lens of conflict management.

As part of the workshops they deliver, TCM takes the time to understand the specific development needs of the group, and facilitates a best in class development journey. We really appreciated the thorough design of the Conflict Management program, that spoke to our learning needs. The insights provided are actual, easy to apply, and provide meaningful results. Looking forward to continuing collaborating with the TCM Group in the future!”

What a fantastic and rewarding training week. I have learnt so much not only about how to effectively mediate but also about myself and how I engage in conflict. The approach taken to learning and practice with a brilliant trainer Pip was brilliant, she left no question unanswered.

Another really well structured programme, with an exceptionally knowledgeable, experienced and effective trainer. This course provided the stretch I needed to leave me feeling more confident in my ability to provide others with the opportunity to successfully resolve their conflicts

An excellent course taking participants through an investigation with relevant activities to practice the skills needed.

Challenging, intense and utterly thought provoking and change any preconceived ideas I had!

TCM provided an exceptionally comprehensive and highly relevant training program that significantly enhanced the skillset of our HR Managers within the organization. This training effectively addresses conflict resolution techniques specifically tailored to handle Employee Relations cases

I attended the TCM Workplace Mediation training. Whilst intense and challenging, I came out of it with a complete understanding of the mediation process.

I couldn’t fault the delivery of the training and the assessment. We were taught the theory, observed and then put what we had learnt into practice – ideal way for me to learn. The support materials and the aftercare available is also very impressive.

Alan was an excellent and engaging trainer/facilitator (not sure which word you use…). Making the content real and relatable, whilst giving people the confidence to implement the mediation framework in real life scenarios. I thought 5 days on zoom would be challenging, but it flew by.

I have thoroughly enjoyed the programme and feel equipped to start as a mediator with this framework to support me. The experiential nature of the course really served to prepare me.

Following the training, my perspectives about mediation in the workplace or community have changed significantly and have helped me to be more engaged in building relationships.

I thoroughly enjoyed my mediation training with TCM. One thing that training did for me was to help me evaluate myself as a person and my workplace priorities.
It allowed me to become aware of various enablers of conflict and helped me to listen actively and empathize effectively with my colleagues and even family members. I have become a better colleague, parent, and partner following that training as I actively explore ways of diffusing tension in my environment before it snowballs into active conflict.
I appreciate Bola and the entire TCM team!

Thank you so much for the Mediation refresher training today.  I thought your delivery was brilliant, engaging and motivational.  As someone with a family with a few ADHD members, it’s really refreshing to hear ADHD talked about so openly and naturally in a work environment.

Thank you again!

Great interactive & engaging training with valuable opportunities to exchange ideas with other delegates, as well as helpful materials for further reflection and development

I did my Mediation training at the TCM Group and it was a suuuuper experience because of the content of the training, how it was delivered and because of the trainer(s). It was the same in this workshop : great trainer, strong content, super nice approach and great atmosphere in the (online) sessions ! Top !!!!

As ever the TCM Team Facilitators course was well organised and structured. The course facilitator was very experienced and more than able to adapt the content to our needs and answer all of our questions. I would highly recommend this course.

My experience TCM Group is great and memorable. The Tutor helped us enhance our investigation skills. I am thankful to TCM Group and Plan International for providing a platform to enhance our investigation skills and an opportunity to showcase them. In the last I am saying that it was really great course, and I learned a lot.

The mediation course was a great experience, with lots of opportunity to practice, network and learn the skills to be a fantastic mediator. Awesome course!!

Great experience from application to completion of assessment. Andi is a great teacher and coach. She takes pride in giving all the delegates a great learning experience by keeping it real by sharing life examples. I have thoroughly enjoyed this week and look forward to becoming an accredited mediator!

The TCM way of mediation is easy to follow and very effective, as a mediator I am looking forward to putting all of my new learnings into practice to help resolve conflicts in a mutually agreeable manner.

I found this course very helpful; the facilitators were friendly, well informed and knowledgeable. I was nervous but they put me at ease and really brought the best out in everyone. I have finished the course feeling confident and capable.

Bola is an incredible facilitator, making all the learning so relatable for all of us. I felt like i learnt a lot of life lessons to apply to all areas of my life through this course.

“I can thoroughly recommend the Practical Investigation Skills course as providing very valuable tips and tools and good space for discussion of key issues for investigations.”

The course was so worth the investment of time, I learnt so much and was able to apply that learning in a safe and supportive environment. I received helpful feedback throughout from the experienced mediators leading the course which I was able to weave into session and see and feel the shift in outcome as a result. Thank you team, I’m looking forward to using my learnings at work to help in future mediation sessions.

I thoroughly enjoyed the Mediation training, I feel I have not only learnt about the mediation process and mediator skills, but techniques to support everyday challenging or coaching conversations.

The whole process with TCM is seamless – from booking through to post-course communication. Really helpful support and communication pre-course from TCM and the delegate zone is such a great resource!

Although the skills gained are applied in dispute resolution, I’ve found the principles of mediation have given me a far better understanding of how to communicate effectively in both my professional and personal life.

Our instructor, Thoralf, has a very easy style of delivery which draws you in to what is being taught. He allowed for various thought-provoking conversations to take place as we explored the process of mediation.

We have a great relationship, TCM has fantastic offers/networking events and I hope we will continue to see more of this. The training that TCM delivered was extremely effective and engaging. Even those trained by TCM from other government departments have had nothing but good things to say. TCM benefited us by giving us the ability for our organisation to offer an outstanding mediation service which is continuing to grow. If was up to me we’d choose TCM every time, but I understand we have internal processes to follow. I look forward to us working together in future, hopefully not just the training of new mediators, but other events too.”

“TCM is a reputation exceeding other organisations. TCM provided the specialist skills for the Mediation Course ensuring that the small groups allowed the focus to work through the mediation approach and style. The course was extremely effective as the practical element I was able to take away and use the skills when mediating at work.  I was able to share my skills and knowledge with managers within the organisation and use the skills effectively. TCM helped by bringing benefits into our organisation by enhancing the need for mediation before taking the formal route of capability. I will always recommend TCM to others due to the personable training that was delivered and the effective approach.”

“I chose TCM because their accredited mediation course was more suited to the culture of the organisation I work for. The course was inspiring, clear and supportive for such an intense and focussed subject, it was excellent! I apply the knowledge daily to improve my skills and experience and I will definitely explore attending other training courses with TCM.”

“The TCM Group came on the back of a very strong recommendation by a reputable contact who had already completed the National Certificate in Workplace Mediation course. The course itself was very effective – insightful and practical. The tutor support and feedback were excellent! Training with TCM meant that I was able to develop my skills to resolve complex workplace disputes. The ongoing events/webinars/seminars hosted by the TCM are fantastic and I would definitely recommend them to any of my colleagues/networks/friends.”

“After looking at several companies I attended one of TCM’s taster sessions. Following that I booked to attend the full course. The service overall was outstanding, and the professionalism of the trainers was outstanding. I still use the supporting material today as a guide. Since I became trained my Trust has now invested in three further Workplace Mediators and we have just completed an 18-month report on the cases we have had referred. We also meet monthly for a debriefing session to discuss cases. We are in the process of reviewing our Grievance Policy and Mediation is already listed as an early intervention before moving to a full-blown investigation. To be completely honest I have always found my interactions with TCM very positive. I feel that I can approach the team at any time for advice and linking into the Webinars is always a good reminder of why we take the steps to resolve issues at the lowest possible level.”

“We wanted to review the way that we deal with challenges in the workplace. As a result of the training with TCM, I am now more confident to facilitate win-win outcomes.”

“The mediation training that was delivered by TCM was enjoyed by all delegates on the course, we all felt that we had learnt a new skill that we could not only use to benefit the organisation but one that we could take away into our personal and professional lives. The trainer Bola was enthusiastic and knowledgeable. Would strongly recommend this course.”

“I invited David to organise a seminar for the Association for Project Management (APM) to help project management professionals develop conflict resolution and mediation skills. David’s workshop was excellent; it was full of expertise and humour, allowed the delegates to reflect and speak about their experiences openly and provided us with a lot of practical tips on how to manage, and make the most of, disagreements in a workplace. David is a true professional with an ability to make a difference and it was a pleasure to work with him.”

“A very experienced and insightful training offered by The TCM Group on workplace investigations. The course was handled excellently despite being delivered remotely due to Covid 19. Would highly recommend!”

“At the age of 53, I found this the most inspiring experience in development I have had in my working life.”

“The course was great and the instructor was fantastic. He was so passionate, knowledgeable and positive, he made the learning experience that much better.”

“The course offers intense learning on such important and powerful human connections, working heavily with emotions. As all of us interface whether that be in work or personal, such skills, tools and techniques can help, learnt through this course. It equips you with concepts and complex issues better. We had a great trainer and had a wonderful, though very intensive, week.”

“A fantastic course made even better by the instructor’s knowledge, expertise and teaching style. I thoroughly enjoyed the 2 days and would recommend to anyone.”

“I just wanted to thank you for delivering a superb course, I can honestly say the content and instruction has been exceptional. I have learnt an incredible amount this week and I feel even more inspired to pursue mediation as my next career – hopefully with TCM! The instructor’s passion and teaching style made the week so interesting and the week fly by; they made the course for me!”

“Thoroughly enjoyed this two day course. It struck the right balance between trainer-led course content and peer-to-peer discussion. Lots to take away – useful frameworks and toolkits which will help develop my skillsets.”

“The trainer’s delivery of the course has been just the right balance between being informative as well as enjoyable. The course covered a number of key areas in a short space of time, but did not feel overwhelming. The trainer gave us the opportunity to reflect back on our learning through engaging activities which has proven to be meaningful and has personally given me the confidence to start using new skills and implement the learning acquired especially around leadership traits and styles.”

“An engaging course, which enables you to delve deep to understand models around leadership, how people tick and how you can adapt to bring the best out of your team.”

“TCM trainers provided an excellent course delivery, which was very intense and challenging, however their skill and facilitation put the participants at ease and encouraged where necessary. They always highlighted that this is a learning process and we are all here to learn from each other to become good mediators.”

“A well structured and informative course with warm and approachable trainers and an array of materials to support learning. It really helps to build your confidence.”

“The HR as Coach & Mediator course was informative, relevant, up-to-date and engaging. In a world of online learning, they managed to ensure we had the right balance of screen time, engaging conversations and content.”

“The whole experience working with TCM has been great. Chloe was supporting us from start to finish, she went above and beyond to help us book the right solution. We chose to go with the Quality Conversations training as we wanted to equip our first-time managers with a toolkit to handle common challenges like giving feedback, leading tricky conversations and managing conflict. Our trainer, Aideen, was a fabulous facilitator and she shared useful strategies with everyone. She made the training into an interactive conversation with everyone feeling involved and included.”

“I highly recommend the National Certificate in Workplace Mediation course. It was delivered to such a high standard and has given me the confidence to put my learning into practice back in the workplace!”

“Thank you for an insightful course. The course provided me with useful skills I can apply in the workplace and was professional from start to finish.”

“I could not be happier with the quality and excellence of the TCM material, the trainer Terry, and the comradery I felt with the other delegates. This has been a wonderful, challenging and rewarding experience.”

“The techniques in this course can be applied both in your business life and personal life. The trainer was extremely knowledgeable and adapted the course content to meet the needs of the delegates.”
