It is a five day programme which also contains the initial half day mini review available to Civil & Commercial candidates, followed by four and a half days of practical family mediation training provided by experienced family mediators and trainers, lawyer and non-lawyer. It also concludes with a final day video recorded simulated mediation, together with a further 12-16 hours post course independent study. ► For Civil & Commercial Accredited Mediators who wish to now obtain the Family Mediation Accreditation, special provisions are in place to attend on the programme for three days at the cost of €1,650. ► Friarylaw are one of the leading mediation service providers in Ireland.

It involves co-mediation and applies an approach to family mediation of both plenary session and private caucusing.

War, Peace and International Order?
War, Peace and International Order? The exact legacies of the two Hague Peace Conferences remain unclear. On the one hand, diplomatic and military historians, who cast their gaze to 1914, traditionally dismiss the events of 1899 and 1907 as insignificant footnotes on the path to the First World War. On the other, experts in international law posit that The Hague’s foremost legacy lies in the manner in which the conferences progressed the laws of war and the concept and application of international justice. This volume brings together some of the latest scholarship on the lega- cies of the Hague Peace Conferences in a comprehensive volume, drawing together an international team of contributors.
