Mediation Training

Course Accreditation

Successful participants on the course will achieve Accreditation granted by the School, and may then hold themselves out, commercially and legally, to be Accredited Mediators.

Recognised & Respected Accreditation

The School of Psychotherapy and Counselling Psychology accreditation is now widely recognised and respected.

Legal Services Commission

In April 2001, the Legal Services Commission added the SPCP name to the Legal Services Commission Funding Code Manual, declaring that mediators accredited by the School (together with certain other bodies) "will be regarded as suitably qualified and capable of being funded under [Legal Aid] certificates".

Judicial Studies Board

The Judicial Studies Board has also added the School’s name to the list of Mediator Providers which is circulated to Judges and Courts throughout the UK. The Law Society carried out an extensive “matching exercise” for the purposes of ‘vetting’ the School’s course, and have granted it full recognition and approval for the purposes of their Civil/Commercial Mediation Panel. Both the Law Society and the Bar Council have granted CPD accreditation for the course.

The Accreditation given by the School is equal to that  of other course providers, and the market is beginning to acknowledge and appreciate the special qualities and effectiveness of mediators psychotherapeutically trained by the our school.
