Natasha Apostolidi, Mediator and Lawyer

Experienced trainers, each one with their own style, they complimented each other while teaching the group. Vivid, straightforward, inspiring, innovative; these are the traits I picked from Amanda. And about Charles: accurate, phlegmatic, attentive to details, economical with words.

Dispute resolution of any kind must necesarily include mediation. It is a way of life, in use all the time. It is a social skill that comes in handy in all situations.

The course was informative and valuable. The pace was intense but not in a manner in which one felt left behind. The course was well structured and it showed that a lot of preparation took place beforehand.

It is impossible to imagine better presenters or more credible professional tutors. Not a single boring moment! Excellent combination of personalities and styles. Strongly inclusive with a variety of different participants.

Michael Filipidis, Lawyer and Mediator, Greece

Truly exceptional. The course acted like a magnet from the very first moment. The spirit of cooperation and mutual support was obvious and the desired outcome was achieved. Each tutor has their own character and personality, crystal clear, so that the mediation is the protagonist.
