Reflective Practice and Learning Groups

Overview on Reflective Practice and Learning Groups

A Reflective Practice and Learning group provides an opportunity for between 6 and 12 Mediators to come together and share their mediation experience while learning from each other. To be a member of a Sharing and Learning group you must be a paid up Trainee Affiliate, Associate Affiliate, Member or Advanced Member of the MII.

The activities which may be undertaken within a Reflective Practice and Learning group include:

  • MII Members presenting a mediation case for discussion as part of their requirements for Advanced Member status
  • Each member of the group sharing mediation case experience to enable discussion and learning
  • Members or Advanced Members raising questions about their practice and areas of interest
  • Sharing information and learning through review of books, seminars and training events

Each Reflective Practice and Learning group should:

  • Register with the MII using the Reflective Practice and Learning Group Registration Form
  • Include at least one Member or Advanced Member of at least 3 years standing.
  • Record its activities to show attendance, agenda and presenter of case presentation
  • Note attendance at meetings
  • Nominate a coordinator who is responsible for registering the group with the Registrar of the MII, circulating the agenda, recording minutes and details of attendees

Note: Where possible, an agenda should be circulated to the group not less than 7 days in advance of the meeting, and include details of time, date and venue of the meeting. If you are interested in starting a Reflective Practice and Learning group in your area, please forward a completed Registration Form for the attention of the Registrar.
