<p class="MsoNormal">Conflict Management@MIT offers a three-tiered
conflict management training for all MIT affiliates three times
per year, over the fall semester, over the spring semester, and
for two weeks in August. The training is tiered at 16-hour,

<p class="MsoNormal">The dates, times, and tier descriptions for
the fall training are as follows:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Tier 1: Conflict Management for
Self-Reflection (16 hours total)</b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Tier 1 consists of 16 hours of conflict
management training for those interested in learning more about
their own orientation towards and engagement in conflict. The
sessions provide tools and practice for engaging in conflict
more efficiently and effectively. Topics include negotiation,
active listening, giving and receiving feedback, cultural
creation and frameworks, and personal conflict style.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Tier 2: Conflict Management for Leadership
(28 hours total)</b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Conflict Management for Leadership, the
second tier in the Conflict Management training, requires the
successful completion of the entirety of Tier 1, and is an
additional 12 hours of in-class time. Topics include conflict
coaching, de-escalation, mindfulness in conflict, and
boundary-setting when supporting others.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Tier 3: Conflict Management for Advanced
Practice (40 hours total)</b> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Tier 3 is the entire 40-hour training, which
includes Conflict Management for Self-Reflection and Conflict
Management for Leadership, and adds an additional 10 hours of
formal mediation instruction and practice. Participants will be
coached throughout the Advanced Practice sessions by
professional mediators and coaches.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">After completion of each successive tier,
participants will receive a Certificate of Participation in
recognition of their efforts; those completing the 40-hour
training will also receive a Mediation certificate. Please note
that all Tiers take the training together in the same cohort.
Participants may opt to take successive tiers at different
times. There is no charge for current students; a fee applies to
all faculty, staff, and others affiliated with MIT. Tuition
reimbursement is available for MIT employees. MIT community
members will be given priority. Non-MIT members please inquire
for training rates. <o:p></o:p></p>
