Our Expert Conflict Resolution Trainers
Practitioners, Not Lecturers: The World's Leading Mediation and Conflict Resolution Experts
Learn the Skills That Professionals Rely On
At CEDR, our trainers and facilitators aren't academics teaching theory from textbooks - they're seasoned practitioners who apply these skills in high-stakes environments every single day. From resolving multi-billion pound commercial disputes to defusing hostage crises, our team of over 50 expert mediators across 20 countries represent the pinnacle of real-world conflict expertise.
What Sets CEDR's Training Faculty Apart
- Diverse professional backgrounds
Legal, HR, industrial relations, psychology, crisis negotiation, and senior commercial experience - Global reach
Our faculty has trained mediators across 70+ countries over 35 years - Proven methodology
Intensive, practice-based learning that embeds skills through real-world application - Continuous development
Rigorous ongoing professional development to stay at the forefront of conflict resolution practice
Practitioners, Not Lecturers
The difference between CEDR training and other programmes comes down to one principle: our trainers teach what they practice every day.
Every member of CEDR's training faculty maintains an active professional practice. They're not teaching from outdated case studies or textbook theories - they're sharing techniques they used last week, challenges they navigated last month, and emerging trends they're seeing right now.
