assist with managing conflict in calgary communities

We welcome those with a minimum level of formal mediation education, and an interest in managing conflict and resolving disputes, to volunteer on one or more of our rosters. Roster members help to deliver our complementary mediation services. For insurance purposes, all roster members must have an active CMCS Membership. Roster member benefits include:

  • joining our mediation, conflict assistance meeting, community engagement and workshop volunteer rosters;

  • training and networking opportunities through role play sessions, member meetings, professional development workshops, and seminars;

  • gaining experience in resolving disputes (great for students and people new to the field!), facilitating multi-party mediations, and delivering conflict resolution workshops, and conflict reduction skill development; and

  • receiving and/or providing peer feedback, as well as mentorship opportunities for new mediators.
