Veronica Leigh-Hanson, HR Consultant at HR Professionals Ltd – National Certificate in Workplace Mediation
"I attended the National Certificate in Workplace Mediation in September 2020 and I have come away from the course fully knowledgeable in workplace mediation. The skills and techniques I have gained from the course have me convinced that this is the best way to resolve workplace conflicts. As an online course, the trainer did very well in keeping us all motivated and engaged, the course content meant that we were engaged throughout the three days on training. I would recommend anyone struggling to resolve a workplace conflict to attend this course."
Sabina Nari, Country Coordinator Jordan at European Training Foundation – National Certificate in Workplace Mediation
"It has been an extremely interesting experience and I am happy I decided to enrol in the course. The programme is a good mixture of practice and theory and it is well balanced also in terms of contents. It was also a real pleasure to meet and do the training that are outside my working environment to confront and share practice from other organisations. The trainers have been helpful, clear and very supportive. I also enjoyed the side opportunities such as the interview with David Liddle on his new book and also the workshop with the network of mediators. It is a full and complete programme. I am interested to receive news on the training opportunities offered by TCM so I will continue to read the weekly newsletter with interest."

Marianne Schoenig, Blueintogreen Mediation – People & Culture Essentials
"TCM are important and inclusive champions of positive change in workplaces. Their candour is refreshing, for example they publicly call out traditional HR warning and discipline-based processes as being ‘horrible’ (I fully agree, having witnessed – as a workplace mediator – the destructive effect grievances have had on so many people, which could have been avoided by professional mediation at an earlier stage). While TCM are realistic that fair formal measures are still needed in situations in which all informal routes have been exhausted, David Liddle and his team are eloquently vocal advocates of the Resolution Revolution – with the focus firmly placed on positive interventions like coaching, facilitated discussions and mediation which are needed today as much as any previous time in history, as we all focus on redefining ‘normal’."
Judy Stafford, Workforce Manager at Velindre University NHS Trust – Practical Mediation Skills
"The mediation training was undertaken virtually and was as I understand it the first one that TCM had done this way so there were reservations however, even though all participants were in different locations and the trainer in London, this did not hamper the training. The use of Microsoft Teams enabled the role play to be undertaken and it went well. Everyone was able to take part and were able to try each role. The training built up well in order that trainees learnt at a good pace in readiness for undertaking a mediation situation. By the end of the training I definitely felt confident enough to undertake quite difficult mediation situations. The trainer’s knowledge was exceptional. She made it interesting as she used examples from her own experiences as a mediator."
