The Mediation Practicums provide opportunities to develop skills as a mediator, along with basic study of mediation law and policy issues. The course is offered in two formats. The Mediation Practicum is a combination of a seminar and a mediation clinic involving practical experience mediating cases in Small Claims Court and other forums. The Multiparty Mediation Practicum is a mediation clinic involving practical experience mediating multi-party, complex cases. Students planning to take either practicum must ensure that their schedules permit them to spend one afternoon per week, Monday through Thursday, mediating cases.
