Equal employment opportunity and workplace disputes often involve multiple interrelated grievances. Effective mediators of these disputes must understand and respond to both the explicit and implicit issues raised. This workshop is an in-depth, hands-on training about the special aspects of mediating public and private sector employment disputes. The course provides information about discrimination, ethics, system design, and intake issues facing federal and other sectors in a clear and thought-provoking way.
