Family Matters has developed a unique program which ensures trainee mediators have the highest possible likelihood of completing their portfolio and achieving Family Mediation Council (FMCA) accreditation.
We offer a training contract which clearly sets out our expectations of the trainee mediator and our responsibilities as training providers.
