The Centre for Effective Dispute Resolution (CEDR) is offering a bursary of up to 100 per cent of the course fees for its five-day Mediator Skills Training course which leads to assessment for CEDR accreditation. In the past bursary and course applications were made simultaneously. In an effort to gain an overview of applicants and in order to ensure a more even distribution of funds, all bursary applications must now be made before the end of April.
James South, Training Director at CEDR, said: “In order to ensure that support is given to the most deserving applicants, applications for bursaries should be submitted by the end of April. This enables us to get a complete overview of bursary applications for the year ahead and ensures that priority is given to deserving applicants.”
The purpose of CEDR’s training bursaries is to encourage and enable those prevented from taking part in Mediator Skills Training for financial reasons to receive financial aid. Applicants need to fulfil a number of criteria in order to be eligible for a bursary, including their potential for promoting EDR theory and techniques, financial need and post-accreditation plans. Preference will be given to overseas applicants, those from charities or voluntary organisations and those from the public sector.
