Master Mediation (MME)
The Master program for (future) mediators.
As a mediator you help people resolve disagreements. You make sure that both parties are well informed and are aware of the consequences of their choices. You learn how to apply interventions that are focused on process management without substantive advice. Indispensable is the ability to reflect on your own background and personal experiences. The Master of Mediation is a study program that, overall, far exceeds the acquisition of skills.

About the course
Why a Master?
Want to learn more than just mediation skills? The Master Mediation is a program that links up with the ever-increasing professionalization and legal embedding that mediators receive. With a broad, business-related knowledge of various fields, a professional mediator can be widely employed.
Theoretical basis
The Master Mediation offers an integral approach to theory and practice: theoretical framework is linked to practice. Through the introduction of a system approach in mediation (people in conflict are considered in relation to their environment), the role of the mediator in this Master is sharply shaped.

“ Without the Master degree in Mediation, I would never have dared to start full-time for myself. I was relatively new to the field and as a result I gained the confidence to be able to do this. You will not become a mediator in 10 days, I am convinced of that. Hence the choice for this Master’s degree. ”
