Mediation is a structured process in which a third party assists two or more parties
in conflict to discuss key issues and work towards a resolution or effective management
of the situation or relationship. This subject introduces some of the models, theories,
and standards relevant to mediation practice in Australia, and international contexts.
Students will analyse some of the fundamental features of mediation and consider the
legal and ethical aspects of mediation practice. Students will learn mediation process
design, and how to adapt the process to a range of contexts including workplace, community,
and other cultural settings. The subject will also cover contemporary issues, including
dispute resolution in an online environment.
Learning Outcomes
