I'd love some advice on this please: I've been thinking for a while about training as a mediator. I used to be a commercial solicitor (in-house in the film & television business) and haven't practised since 2007. Lots of solicitors train as mediators in their own area of specialism but film & TV companies don't tend to use mediation. I'm contemplating family mediation, work-place/employee relations and possibly general commercial mediation.
The training is very expensive - between £2.5 and £5k depending on the provider and then there is CPD on top of that. You then get into the vicious circle of "need experience to get work; need work to get experience". Does anyone have any advice on (i) which course to recommend; (ii) how to get the experience and (iii) how likely it is that I might recoup the investment.
I'm going round in circles
