The LSM's 5-day civil and commercial mediation training was a brilliant introduction to conflict mediation. The instructors were very engaging and clearly knowledgeable and passionate about the subject. The course was very thorough—it covered a wide range of topics including the history of the profession, practical mediation skills, ethical and legal considerations for practitioners, and even guidance on how to set up and market your own practice. What I found particularly invaluable was the ample time allocated to roleplaying and practicing mediation. After several hours of participating in mock mediations and hearing the instructors' feedback, I found that I had a much clearer sense of how to conduct mediations and confidence in myself to start mediating in the real world.

An excellent and intensive course and introduction to mediation and totally recommended. Highly professional facilitators. Mediation is a practical skill that requires lots of practice which the course provides, with sound constructive feedback at every stage. Intense because the course puts you suitably out of your comfort zone, again required to bring Mediation within your comfort zone. One star less than 5 because the high standards of the course leaders earlier in the week were not sustained on the final day when assessments took place. I'm sure a one-off.

This excellent one-week mediaton course is certainly the best course I have done. It is comprehensive and well-structured and enabled the participants to have a good grasp of the mediation process at the end of the 40 hours. The several roleplays also enabled an authentic learning experience. The lecturers were very professional and answered all questions fully and patiently. I highly recommend it

I recently completed a mediation course with LSM and I must say, it was an exceptional learning experience. The course covered a broad range of topics related to mediation, including conflict resolution, communication techniques, and negotiation skills. One of the things I appreciated about the course was the emphasis on practical applications. The instructors provided real-world scenarios and role-playing exercises to help us understand how to effectively mediate disputes. This hands-on approach helped me develop the confidence and skills necessary to be an effective mediator. The course also provided a comprehensive understanding of the legal aspects of mediation. I found this particularly helpful, as it gave me a clear understanding of the legal requirements and ethical considerations that must be taken into account during the mediation process. The instructors were knowledgeable, experienced, and approachable. They were always available to answer questions and provide guidance throughout the course. The course material was well-organized and easy to follow. Overall, I highly recommend this mediation course to anyone interested in developing their conflict resolution skills. The knowledge and skills I gained from this course have already proven to be invaluable in both my personal and professional life. Thank you to the instructors and organizers for providing such a valuable learning experience.

An intensive course that more than prepares you to be the mediator you want to be. Energised, insightful instructors with lots of anecdotes that make you laugh or phew it’s not just me. Just want to get started.

An energising, enlightening and thoroughly enjoyable five-day course run by two exceptional mediators plus two supportive assessors. The course brought together a diverse group of delegates, supporting us to bring the best out in each other. The intimacy of the programme meant there was meaningful and rich tutor contact at all times. Assessment was meaningful and a real and appropriate test of skills learnt. I'd recommend this course to anyone and, no, not just lawyers. Out of group of 10 delegates, only two were lawyers. A really fun, intense and rewarding week.

The week-long mediation course was really informative and lots of fun, with plenty of opportunities to practice the skills being taught. I highly recommend it, and I'll definitely consider training with LSM again in the future.

a week that has changed the way I interact on a daily basis rather than just in formal situations.

Fantastic team of lecturers, Judith, Tabitha and Lizze are meticulous and thorough. The atmosphere was friendly, there was always a fresh supply of tea, coffee and biscuits. An all-around wonderful learning experience. I encourage everyone and anyone interested in mediation to attend LSM.

Best course I’ve ever done in 35 years as a consultant. Fantastic resources, trainers and material. With the right group, the role plays are hilarious provided you’re prepared to commit to group learning.

The 5-day Civil and Commercial Mediation Course was superb. Being a non-lawyer, the learning curve felt steep but the course management and supremely clear instruction made the week both enjoyable and challenging. All the instructors were experienced, enthusiastic, knowlegeable and highly effective. I have no hesitation recommending the LSM, in fact I'm going back for more mediation training later this year.

I have to say I really enjoyed this course. I am not a lawyer and on day 1 I wondered if I was out of my depth but the coaching, learning and the role play was fantastic. Whilst I was certainly pushed outside my comfort zone (which is a good thing) I felt supported by the very knowledgeable course Tutors but also from my fellow attendees, The role plays provided opportunities to be the mediator but also were a very valuable learning tool when playing the part of the participants at a mediation. The exam and the evaluation towards the end of the week were an excellent way to make sure all the learning had been adsorbed and that we were equipped to safely go out and develop our skill as mediators. I felt thoroughly enthused after the final day so much so that I signed up for two further 1 day courses to add to my knowledge gained. I would certainly recommend this to any potential mediator. Thanks to the team for a well planned and delivered course.

First class. The hands on instruction is the best I have experienced (I have previously taken the Harvard and Straus Institute introductory courses). The absolute commitment to purely facilitative mediation is eye opening and taught me much that I will take into my mediation practice.

There was a very full agenda for the mediation course, and many moving parts given the learning content, a significant amount of role play, exams mid week, and assessments and final results feedback all in the context of COVID and social distancing requirements. The week went without hiccup, and all the trainers/assessors were very professional, clear and helpful with questions throughout the week, well done. I'd strongly recommend LSM to others, they were highly organised and professional, and the course structure with all the role plays worked very well as a learning approach.

Excellent course with passionate and experienced trainers who lived up to their billing on their website from other past students. I felt like I was standing on the shoulders of giants! The online training (Zoom) and background admin were very efficient, and they made you feel like you were the only student. Nothing was too much trouble.
