Are you a mediator with at least three years’ experience in one or more fields of mediation?

Would you like the opportunity to join the College’s Professional Standards Committee (the PSC)?

What does the committee do? We advise the board on best practice in mediation and contribute to the ongoing development of the college and its code of practice for mediators. Polices are considered and approved by the board of directors only after they have been written, considered, reviewed or amended by the PSC.

We need people who know about mediation, who want to support our members with quality information and who want to contribute towards the work and growth of the College. We also approve training courses for new or existing training providers who want to become College approved trainers. There is also the opportunity to be involved in the delivery of college conferences and other events.

What do we need from you?

• Attendance at quarterly PSC meetings (usually online, occasionally in person)
• Regular communication between the group between meetings
• A commitment to the work of the college and happy to work on agreed tasks within the remit of the PSC

How do you apply?

• Submit a CV and up to 2 pages of A4 detailing areas of interest and potential contributions to the committee.
• Will be interviewed by 2 PSC members, usually the chair and 1 other, as delegated by the Board of Directors. (Where only 1 PSC member is available the second person will be a member of the Board)
• Will have their application accepted or declined after feedback to the board
• Will be notified of the outcome within 2 weeks
• Will be invited to the next available PSC meeting
• Previous members of the PSC, wishing to rejoin, will not be required to undertake the application process. They will have an informal discussion with the chair about rejoining the committee
