In the early part of this year, Mediator Network rebranded to The Dispute Resolution Agency (The DRA). The DRA is dedicated to raising the standards of dispute resolution provision and we are delighted to announce that we are formally aligning with the College of Mediators for our standards of practice.
We see the College of Mediators as the leading standards setting body for mediators based in the United Kingdom. With their commitment to practitioner development, support and service delivery, the College provides an inclusive and accessible offering for mediators at every stage of practice.
As part of our move towards raising standards, all associates who work with us must be registered with the College to be eligible for UK panel work and to be recommended by us. All other mediators are encouraged to register with the College.
As part of our alignment, DRA members are eligible to register with the College without charge for their first 12 months. In addition, we are delighted to provide existing members of the College with 50 per cent off their monthly fees for business support during their first 12 months with us.
Details of applying for College membership can be obtained by emailing admin@collegeofmediators.co.uk
