Mediator Dojo is here, and it marks a new chapter for our Mediate.com Member community. For decades, Mediate.com has served mediators with trusted educational opportunities, practical tools and a place to keep learning as the mediation field has evolved. We have long believed that good mediation is both a craft and a calling, something that we each refine through reflection, feedback and real practice.
Mediator Dojo is our next step in this tradition: a way for mediators to gain additional practice with useful feedback and conveniently on your schedule. We are proud of our long history of supporting our evolving mediation community, and we are genuinely excited to now build an AI based educational model grounded in the same mission: helping you to do this important work with skill, care and professional excellence.
Here is an overview of MediatorDojo:
More About MediatorDojo
MediatorDojo is a Beta program built for mediators to explore what’s next. You step into a variety of AI-powered dispute scenarios, choose how you want to engage as the mediator, and seek to move the conversation forward in real time. When you finish, you receive an evaluation designed to help you see what landed and what you may want to refine. It is a safe space to test new openings, experiment with language, sharpen your listening and to stay curious about your impact on disputing participants.
MediatorDojo is meant to support your judgment, your presence and your ability to help people feel heard, without needing live role-play partners nor a scheduled training time. Think of MediatorDojo a practice mediation room that you can enter anytime, with a constructive feedback loop built in.
A Sample Beginning
As MediatorDojo is in a Beta phase, your experience matters greatly to us. We are launching MediatorDojo first for Mediate.com Members so we can improve the training platform with people who understand quality mediation practice. So, please take a few moments to check out what we are building. Your feedback will shape what MediatorDojo becomes next: desired scenarios, evaluation standards and clarity, pacing, interface choices and the overall usefulness of MediatorDojo for real-world practice.
Here is a sample Mediator Session Evaluation
MediatorDojo Beta is now available to all Mediate.com Members To jump in, visit: Mediate.com/MediatorDojo and choose a scenario to begin. If you already have a session in progress, you can return and continue where you left off, which makes it easy to practice in short bursts.
Please try out MediatorDojo Beta and let us know how we can improve it. You’ll see a link to a feedback form once you submit your first scenario for evaluation. What felt realistic? What is missing? And how can we make MediatorDojo most valuable for you, your practice and the field of mediation?
