The purpose of CPD is to ensure that Mediators keep their knowledge and skills up to date for the benefit of users of their service and for their own personal and professional development. CPD has an underlying ethical premise that asserts that clients have a right to expect competent and skilled practitioners. Thus every Mediator has a responsibility to maintain and develop knowledge and skills, and alongside the individual responsibility, lies the professional Institute's obligation to provide the means whereby this can happen.Most professional bodies acknowledge that CPD is a commitment to lifelong learning with an emphasis on 'home skills', thus for the MII, the emphasis is on mediation skills.The MII requires that all practising Members complete a minimum of CPD hours and has agreed a CPD points system.
Additional mandatory training required for mediating with Separating Couples -
40 hours Separating Couples training is mandatory for members who wish to be certified to mediate with Separating Couples. See Accredited Family Training for upcoming courses

GW, Head of Department and Course Coordinator, Trinity College Dublin:
As course coordinator of the Postgraduate diploma in Conflict and Dispute Resolution Studies at Trinity College Dublin I am very happy to recommend the mediation training provided by Erwin Bouchier Professional Solutions.
Mags Boucher and Karen Erwin have been training our students in facilitative mediation for the last two years [2014-2016]. They are very experienced in the field and bring their long-standing practice to the classroom. Each session for the students is thoroughly prepared and professionally delivered. The students benefit from undertaking role plays and practical skills development under the careful tutelage of the trainers. Student evaluations are always very positive about the training received.
I am pleased to report that last year twenty of our students undertook the Mediators Institute of Ireland accreditation exam after training with Ms Bouchier and Ms Erwin, and all passed very successfully. I am expecting similar results this year.
CF, HR Manager:
A highly useful, relevant and valuable training course that offered the perfect blend of theory and practical skills training. The training providers [EBPS] have in-depth and expert knowledge in mediation service delivery, in addition to extensive experience within the professional services industry. This was made evident in the case studies presented, the dialogue generated, and the insights offered…
Margaret is a skilled trainer, bringing both the theoretical and practical elements of the course to life, with professionalism, an inclusive approach, a friendly demeanour and with helpful encouragement along the way.
