Mediate Complex Divorce Cases

CRT’s Advanced Mediation Training was designed to provide practicing Divorce Mediators with the knowledge to mediate the most complex of Divorce Mediation cases. The course is taught by experts in Finance and Law that regularly work with Divorce Mediators and understand the mediation process. Each Instructor teaches their area of expertise, drawing from decades of experience to make highly technical topics accessible. Participants learn exactly how to help their clients navigate particularly difficult valuations and divisions of assets and liabilities.

 

If you've completed our Divorce Mediation Certificate Program, or have worked as a Private Practice Divorce Mediator after receiving your training elsewhere, and want to gain the confidence to mediate any Divorce Mediation case—regardless of the clients' financial situations—then our Advanced Divorce Mediation Training course is for you.
