Continuing Education Opportunities

 

 

The principal of Deines & Associates, Erika Deines, is a noted educator in the field of mediation and associated topics.  Today some of her courses are offered online through an association with Royal Roads University.  At other times her courses are offered through ADR organizations throughout Canada and Europe such as the ADR International Group. 

In addition, Deines & Associates is pleased to be able to offer private training opportunities for your events.  Do you have a need for a custom course or seminar?  We will be happy to discuss the options that will best suit your needs.  Should you be organizing a conference or just looking for an ongoing online training opportunity for your members or team please contact us so we can explore the opportunities for enrichment.

The courses listed are all offered to organizations with closed enrolment as opposed to publicly offered and open enrolment. Publicly available courses are listed in the Resources section of this website.

Through Deines & Associates education never ends!
