The Dispute Resolution Center offers a range of training opportunities for our volunteers and for the general public. Our training style is interactive and experiential, geared to building on the life skills that adult learners bring.

Trainings include brief presentations, exercises, demonstrations, and role plays. Sessions are lively and interactive, engaging participants in a variety of ways to capitalize on different learning styles and the diversity of the training group.
