Join us for our Advanced Attorney-Mediator Training, Annual Meeting, and CLE Seminar as we “Meet in St. Louis” for our return to an in-person conference. This highly interactive meeting will highlight how mediators “meet people where they are” in the mediation process. We will offer sessions on framing questions and working with different personalities in mediation. Sessions will also cover risk assessment, ethical dilemmas, and confronting bias in mediation. Featured speakers include top mediators from across the country to bring you a well-rounded day of learning and building upon your mediation skills.

We hope you will join us in St. Louis this spring!
