The Postgraduate Diploma in International Mediation (DipIM-ADR) is dedicated to providing a course with a strong focus on mediation and conciliation. The Diploma will not only provide an understanding of the theoretical, practical and ethical problems relating to international mediation, but will also provide a stepping stone to more professionals becoming involved in international alternative dispute resolution (ADR).

The diploma is aimed not only at lawyers, but also at other professionals who may be involved in mediation due to some expert knowledge that they have: a legal qualification will not be a pre-requisite for admission. All candidates will be expected to appreciate that the course will involve, inevitably, an understanding of law and legal implications. References and materials will be legally orientated, but this will enable the non-lawyer to be better equipped to deal with the issues raised in international business mediation.
