The Mentoring/Consultion Program
TO THE GENERAL MEMBERSHIP OF NYSCDM
We are please to announce the inception of a mentoring/consultation program under the direction of Sydell Sloan and Kathy Jaffe. The purpose of the program is to provide support to all newly trained members and to those new to the profession of mediation. In addition, the program will allow those members seeking accreditation to accrue the necessary consultation hours to meet the accreditation requirements in that area.
We have recruited accredited members in all parts of the state who are willing to provide you with some or all of the of the following:
* One hour discussion sessions in their office
* Observation of your mediation in your office with follow-up debriefing
* Observation of their mediation in their office with follow-up debriefing
* Telephone conferences
* E-mail correspondence
* Review of your notes and initial MOU drafts
* Review of the supporting documents and information you have requested from clients
The mentor/consultant will not be teaching the basics of mediation. Each mentoree is expected to have completed a 40 hour course. Fees wiil vary throughout the state, with the first hour being offered free of charge, and every subsequent hour charged at 1/3 of the mentors normal and customary mediation fee. A certificate will be issued by the mentor attesting to the hours provided, for the purpose of meeting the accreditation requirements.
