The course exceeded my expectations. I could not imagine that it would be so rich, informative, intellectual and really difficult. I had to put aside all my knowledge and skills about negotiation and communication and start anew with a clean slate.

Everyone should have exposure to the skills and knowledge CEDR can bring to all industry sectors. This course alone will help in all aspects of negotiating with any stakeholder or partner and in preventing conflicts before they become a major issue.

I've been on £50k+ of courses in past three years. This is best organised, explained, throught through course of all of these. No doubt it aids the experience and most importantly the impact/retention of learning. Quality all round.

“As you might imagine, I am extremely happy with these results, and I will take every learning opportunity from the detailed Assessments for which I am very grateful to the faculty members for being so diligent and helpful with their advice.

This was the best managed and most interesting course that I have completed since I changed professions from Engineering to Law and I am looking forward very much to building on the learning I received from this course through membership of MYCEDR in the years ahead.”
