So, one of the best parts about the program was the interactive nature of the way in which we learned. We would have role plays, we would have different participants, and we would have a coach involved who would assist us throughout the role play—who would critique us, who would make suggestions—and it was a wonderful, wonderful way to learn. We took all of the courses online via Zoom, and I was very pleased with the quality of the course and the material.
I had the opportunity to attend both in person as well as virtually. What I found it to be was a lot more engaging than most of the other courses that I have ever taken in my life. There was the opportunity to practice the theoretical aspects, and it was an excellent medium. The Zoom platform techniques can be applied in real life as soon as you finish those courses.
We were constantly engaged. The speakers were asking us questions, and we were able to put in answers or questions in the chat, or we could raise our hand. There was a lot of variety in terms of different instructors at different times. The timing was very good, so I never felt that I was bored or that I was too fatigued. You actually saw everybody’s faces and reactions, as well as when the instructors were talking. You actually had the availability to put a question in a chat group. If you’re not the type of person that sits in a classroom and wants to put their hand up, you had that availability to put your question in a chat group, which allowed the instructor to address that question without actually feeling apprehensive or confused.
We had people from different parts of the world, so globally we all connected in one forum. The fact that you can go to the hub and download information, the fact that there are great breakout rooms and wonderful coaches—it’s a small group, and we’re interactive, and the coaches or trainers come into the room virtually from time to time just to see how we’re doing.
I found that with the coaches, it was awesome because they were able to turn off their cameras, where you had the availability to actually concentrate on your role and responsibility as a mediator and as a role play person. Afterwards, the coach would come back on and provide that feedback, which is comparable to when you’re actually sitting in person.
I have made significant sums of money utilizing the different tips and techniques that I’ve learned in this program, and it’s made me a better communicator, a better father, and a better lawyer. So, if you’re looking for a program to take, I would highly recommend this program. I felt it was a very high-quality course. I’ve used the skills already both at home and professionally.
So the ADR course—all six of them that I have done to complete this executive certificate—I would say have been professionally life-changing. I think it’s an amazing course. I have advised my colleagues that this is something you have to do. Not just “should”—you should have to do.
From a Stiff Field Handy perspective, absolutely the best program that I can recommend. It is money well spent.
