All who are interested in becoming a family mediator are welcome to attend Community Mediation Minnesota’s online 40 Hour Family Mediation Skills Training. Family mediation focuses on helping divorced or separated parents, and their children, find relief from conflict, stress and anger. Volunteering as a family mediator helps to provide a safe space for co-parents to make decisions about their relationship with each other and to discuss their responsibilities to their children – in a more cooperative setting than going to court. 

Attending all 40 hours is required in order to meet Minnesota Rule 114 Family Mediation requirements. Those who complete this course can apply to become Minnesota Qualified Neutrals on the Supreme Court Family Mediation Roster*.  CLE Credits can be applied.* 

Note, this training does not qualify for the Civil Mediation Roster!

*Must attend all sessions for credit

Hosted by: Community Mediation Minnesota (CMM)
