FMC Role Play Group Summer 2025 Level 2

FMC Role Play Groups for Advanced Certification Preparation

Family Mediation Canada (FMC) offers two distinct Role Play Groups for members working toward certification in either Family Relations Mediation – Advanced or Comprehensive Family Mediation – Advanced.

These groups provide opportunities for members to connect, learn from one another, and practice as mediators in realistic, simulated family mediation scenarios.

Level 1: Skills Development

Level 1 is designed for participants looking to build confidence and strengthen foundational, interest-based mediation skills.
Participants set personal learning goals and receive coaching and feedback from the facilitator.

• Sessions are 2 hours long.
• Two participants will each have approximately 45 minutes to role play as mediator, with coaching support.
• Role players may pause at any time for feedback or redirection.
• The format is informal and tailored to individual learning needs.

Attendance of at least 85% is strongly encouraged.
Fall 2025 sessions run Mondays from September 8 to November 24, 10:00 AM–12:00 PM Pacific Time.
Please confirm your local time zone.
 
Level 2: Certification Readiness

Level 2 is intended for participants who are nearly ready to submit their video for FMC certification.
Sessions focus on evaluative feedback aligned with FMC certification standards.

• Sessions are 2 hours long.
• Participants rotate as mediator for 45 minutes each, followed by 15 minutes of structured feedback.
• No coaching is provided during the role play; feedback is given afterward.
• Time in the mediator role may count toward practicum hours, with approval from the facilitator and FMC Registrar.

Attendance of at least 85% is strongly encouraged.
Summer 2025 sessions run Wednesdays from July 9 to September 24, 9:00–11:00 AM Pacific Time.
