CENTRE FOR - � CONFLICT RESOLUTION CENTRE FOR CONFLICT RESOLUTION INSTRUCTIONAL RETREAT 2000 JI JUSfICE INSfITUTE OF B.C. WELCOME A Message from the Director In September 2000, Larry Goble retired as our President after 22 years of service to the JI. Larry played a key role in the growth and development of our unique institution over these years, including our re-location to our present campus site in New Westminster. On behalf of the staff, instructional team and students of the Centre for Conflict Resolution, we wish him the very best in his retirement. His successor, Jack McGee, brings many years of experience in the post secondary field in Ontario. We very much appreciate his support of our programs. I am very pleased to let you know about some major initiatives of the JI and in particular the Centre for Conflict Resolution which expand training opportunities provincially, nationally and internationally and will change the way we are positioned in the dispute resolution field. OUR MISSION We are dedicated to the provision of quality instructional services in interest­ based dispute resolution to assist individuals, organizations and communities to resolve differences and build harmonious relationships. WHY TAKE YOUR TRAINING AT THE CENTRE FOR CONFLICT RESOLUTION? Our students and graduates say that the key components of our success are: • High-calibre instructors · •A supportive environment • Skills and concepts which are practical in work and personal life • High program standards • Opportunities to practice skills with feedback _ , . . . . .. · •Availability of progra·m� in'.> various communities •Outstanding reputation in the dispute resolution field Registration: (604) 528-5590 In November 2000, the Justice Institute received the International Standards Organization (ISO) 9001 accreditation for the design and delivery of training programs. We are one of only two educational institutions in all of Canada, and the first in B.C. to receive accreditation for the entire institute. ISO accreditation has the most significance in the international market, where such accreditation is often a requirement to do business. The Centre for Conflict Resolution is currently in the process of developing informal agreements with organizations and colleges in Israel, Jordan and South Africa for reciprocal learning, and associates have made recent visits to the JI to participate in training here. I recently returned from delivering conflict resolution training in Amman, Jordan for the Jordanian Hashemite Fund for Human Development and its national training institute The Queen Zein Al Sharaf Complex for Development. They are very excited about the opportunities for expansion of this work in Jordan and an ongoing connection with the JI. This calendar represents the launch of our new certificate program in Peacemaking and Restorative Justice. We are extremely grateful to Judge Barry Stuart for his invaluable assistance in developing this program, and also appreciate the support we have received on a provincial and national level from many groups, depart­ ments and ministries who now place restorative justice high on their list of priori­ ties. We think you will find the courses of great interest and benefit, either as a compliment to your work in Conflict resolution or to provide a solid background for community programs, schools or institutions· who wish to develop in this new and rapidly growing area. As with the conflict resolution program, you may take individual courses as long as you meet prerequisite· requirements. We are also very pleased to introduce our diverse and experieJilced peacemaking and restorative justice instructional team and thank them for their enthusiasm in this new venture. Finally it is my pleasure to let you know that we are currently running two First Nations Negotiation Skills Certificate Programs - in Burns Lake and Takla Lake. We look forward to awarding certificates in 2001, which will bring to well over 100 the number of graduates of our First Nations Certificate Program. We com­ mend these participants for their commitment and hard work, and our dedicated instructional team for their support and expertise in this area of our Centre's work. On behalf of all of us at the Centre, we hope you will enjoy the new calendar, and we look forward to working with you over the semester. Feel free to come in and talk with us about any part of our work. As ever, we welcome your thoughts and suggestions.

Our Approach to Mediation The Centre for Conflict Resolution offers intFo.ductory anti. advanced skills-based mediation courses and develops new courses. .At tile Centre for Conf:liet Resolution, we believe that ther� is no one rigltt way to practice mediation, but a variety of approaehes that may be situationaBy appNJpriate. Stud.eats taking mediation courses through the Centre can expect to encount-er a range of styles and appr:oaehes based on instructor's e1fperience as mediato:rs, which we hope will enrich learning. Conformity of method and praetice is not our goal; radter, we encourage our students as adult leamers to develop their own style based on a framework of guiding principles and an understanding ef·the parties, culture and setting within wbieh they are mediating. 16 Registration: (604) 528-5590 Web site: www.jibc.bc.ca Inquiries: (604) 528-5608 CERTIFICATE IN CONFLICT RESOLUTION - ELECTIVES The Certificate Program requires 91 hours (13 days) of elective courses.

One Day (7 hours) $135 Wear. comfortable clothes and bring a mat or blanket and a firm cushion. Insnuctor Apr 30.

Dale is in private practice as a therapist, trainer and consultant specializing in conflict resolution and chang­ ing violent behavior. Registration: (604) 528-5590 Prerequisites: Length: Fee: Meditation is a way of making friends With yourself and training your mind. In the midst of conflict our mind often races ahead as our body .and breathing responds with increased anxiety. In this way our perception, intelligence· and riatural wisdom are lost when we need them most. Rather than withdrawing from the world, meditation can help us be fully present in any situation, especially when in conflict. We will explore traditional sitting meditation, mindfulness ;md awareness exercises. Outcome research on the positive impact of meditation on health and performance will be. reviewed artd guidelines will be provided on how to integrate meditation into one's daily life. � THE ART OF REFRAMING (CR366) CRll0A or CRll0B and one of CR260 or CR250 One Day (7 hours) $135 Skillful reframes often mean the difference between reaching resolution or reaching impasse. More than merely changing language, reframing can shift the entire perception of and approach to the conflict. As one of the most powerful tools available, reframing can be used effectively in every phase . of conflict discussion from building an atmosphere, to identifying issues, exploring interests and reaching agreement. In this intensive one­ day skill-building course, you will learn how to identify problematic conflict frames wherever and whenever they occur and practice providing reframes that lead towards resolution.

CRl lOA or CRllOB . . .CR102, Recommended: CR105 Length: One day (7 hours) $135 Fee: S Aug 17 Instructor .. , Stacey Holloway Registration: (604) 528-5590 In recent years, we have seen an increasing number of attempts to develop collaborative approaches to dispute resolution emerging in both business and the public sector: This shift toward group involvement in solving problems, setting policies, making decisions and planning events ("consensus-building'', "team building", "stake holder participation", <'public consultation") has not always proved successful. Consensus decision making · is not easy. As an ideal, it has tremendous appeal, and its benefits in terms of long-term effectiveness, commitment and conflict resolution are many. Although elements that lead to consensus are relatively simple to understand, the challenge is to learn to apply the elements effectively. This course is designed to assist participants in under­ standing conditions that must exist for consensus deci­ sions to be made, procedures for preparation of the involved parties, processes and guidelines to follow while trying to reach a decision and participant skills necessary for reaching consensus.

Empathy and assertion are often described as the two foundations of collaborative conflict resolution but finding the balance between them can be tricky. In this one day course participants will practice strategies for achieving the mental and emotional clarity necessary to effectively use assertion and empathy. Participants will also have opportunities to through facilitated small group exercises to practice finding �- and keeping -- the elusive balance. Date Prerequisites: Length: Fee: Whether you are negotiating an important issue, express­ ing your thoughts and feelings in a conflict or standing firm under pressure, the ability to assert yourself is . crucial to being able to reach outcomes that work for you. When in conflict situations, it can be especially difficult to maintain an assertive stance rather than over-reacting or selling yourself short.

In negotiations and mediations it can create major barriers, and when explored, can open up opportunities for breakthroughs. When parties are defending and protecting self-image (face-saving), listening becomes more difficult and positions become cemented. Left unaddressed, defensive­ ness can stalemate the discussion. This workshop will cover theories from different psychological perspectives on defense mechanisms affecting ourselves and others. These theories will then be integrated with skills to address defensiveness in conflict situations. Understanding how face-saving impacts defensive behaviours will be dis­ cussed.

Partici­ pants will explore, through an interactive mix of theory and practice, processes for "scoping the project",, deter­ mining what role (if any) the ADR consultant will play, contracting with the client regarding goals, participation and learning, coaching clients in resolution choices to find the. "fit" of interventions (dispute-specific, process­ specific and systems-specific), minimizing resistance and maximizing incentives · to erihance organizational redesign efforts, .exploration of cutting .edge issues and applications to "back-home" issues (including the creation of "self­ mediating systems"), and handling ethical and practice dilemmas.

Two Days (14 hours) $325 The words 'mediating' and 'dangerously' don't often appear together.

Dangerous mediation means approaching conflicts with deep honesty and empathy, eliminating demonization .ind victimization, dropping masks and poses, and exploring conflicts within our­ selves. It means triggering controlled "chain reactions" that allow conflict to explode safely. It means testing the limits by confronting oppressive relationships, transform­ ing systems, exploring forgiveness and discovering the spiritual heart of the process.

Restorative Justiee practices vary immensely � from mediation to peacemaking eirdes. ne principles of each practice differ, but shape a common theme in emphasizing shared problenl solving, healiag, reconciliation and less dependence on formal processes., on the State and upon professional expertise. Many colmllUnity and restorative justice practiees depend upon and fotge partnerships within commumt;y� within service agencies, a11d 'between communities and service agencies. The practices and principles of restorative justice can be adapted to schools, institutions, child protection and many other kinds of conflict 0utside the justice system, including problem s&l'Ving and team building within institutions. Approach to Training The program has been developed with the belief that there .are many approaches to praettce. any one of which may be more or less appropriate in a given situation. There is a wide divergence 0f views on what constitutes best practice within the field of peacemaking and restorative justice, and approaches to practice are value laden. We do not espouse any particular approach to practice. but rather, strongly encourage participants to learn many different approaches, so as to better select or design an approach that is appropriate for the situation. We value flexibility and context sped.fie process. Courses are culturally sensitive and co-instructed whenever possible to represent r this course.
