Conflict management coaching workshop


Course Dates


Conflict management coaching, also known as conflict coaching, is a specialized niche in the field of coaching and conflict management. It is a one-on-one technique, in which a trained coach assists people to effectively manage specific disputes or prevent unnecessary ones. Conflict management coaching also helps clients to strengthen their competence to more effectively engage in conflict.

This specialized coaching process has wide application in organizational, family and other contexts - for coaching people to independently manage their disputes, to more effectively engage in challenging communications, and to participate with more confidence in mediation or other ADR processes.

There are two options for this course:

In-person:  29 credit hours. Four full days in-classroom.

Online:  33 credit hours. Six classes (17 hours total); intersessions scheduled outside class time (5 hours total); skills practice sessions (8 hours total).
