Instilling in him the lessons they learned from the United Farm Workers and the civil rights movement\, Attorney General Bonta’s parents lit a fire inside him to fight against injustice — to stand up for those who are taken advantage of or harmed. It’s why he decided to become a lawyer — to help right historic wrongs and fight for people who have been harmed. He worked his way through college and graduated with honors from Yale University and attended Yale Law School. \n  \nIn the State Assembly\, Attorney General Bonta enacted nation-leading reforms to inject more justice and fairness into government and institutions. As the People’s Attorney\, he sees seeking accountability from those who abuse their power and harm others as one of the most important functions of the job. In elected office\, he has taken on powerful interests and advanced systemic change — pursuing corporate accountability\, standing up for workers\, punishing big polluters\, and fighting racial injustice. He has been a national leader in the fight to transform the criminal justice system\, banning private prisons and detention facilities in California\, as well as pushing to eliminate cash bail in the state. He has led statewide fights for racial\, economic\, and environmental justice and worked to further the rights of immigrant families\, renters\, and working Californians.  \n  \nPrior to serving in the Assembly\, Attorney General Bonta worked as a Deputy City Attorney for the City and County of San Francisco\, where he represented the City and County and its employees\, and fought to protect Californians from exploitation and racial profiling.  \n  \nBorn in Quezon City\, Philippines\, Attorney General Bonta immigrated to California with his family as an infant.

SUMMARY:Fundamentals of Mediation
DESCRIPTION:A 40-hour basic mediation training program\, including certificate of completion and optional MCLE credit. \nThe UC Law SF Center for Negotiation and Dispute Resolution (CNDR) presents its’ annual 40-hour comprehensive mediation practitioner training. This program provides a unique blend of mediation theory\, hands-on mediation skills training\, and an exploration of the sensibilities and personal qualities required to be an effective mediator. \nThis in-person program is useful for a range of professionals who deal with people in conflict\, and any attorney who represents clients in mediation\, to understand the process and to be more effective in representing clients in mediation. We also encourage participation of international attorneys\, notaries and Hastings LL.M. students. No prior training or experience required. \n\nIn this highly interactive and dynamic training\, participants from around the world learn the theory and practice of mediation. The methodology consists of a mixture of discussion\, skill building exercises and role play. All participants will have the opportunity to practice multiple times in the client\, advocate and mediator roles and will receive personalized feedback and coaching from professional mediators. \nWe start with the psychology and behavior of people in conflict and the different process choices parties can make when seeking to resolve conflict. We examine the different styles or models of mediation and the implications of those models for the client experience. We then explore and practice every phase of a mediation\, from opening and setting the stage\, to exploration of interests and issues\, negotiating agreements\, preparation of settlement documents and closure. \n\nCombined with the practice of these phases\, participants build critical communication and process management skills including how to: \n\nMaintain neutrality\nBalance power\nSelect appropriate influencing strategies\nDecide whether\, when and how to use private sessions (“caucus”)\nFacilitate the “money dance”\nConduct a methodical alternatives analysis\nEmploy techniques for overcoming impasse\nConvey “difficult” messages\nUse active listening\nAsk questions to move the clients in helpful directions\nHandle difficult behavior and “reframe” problematic statements\n\n  \nFinally\, we cover mediator ethics\, process confidentiality\, working with representatives and co-mediation. \n  \nWhat participants have to say: \n“Fantastic! So happy I chose this program\, it blew away my expectations. The role playing was especially valuable to measure progress and enforce the teaching.” – BT 2022 \n  \n“I quit my job as a teacher to work in the Office of Civil Rights doing in-house dispute resolution and mediation. I could not have gotten this position without taking CNDR’s Fundamentals of Mediation Training\, and I am so grateful for all of the skills I gained. I re-read Prof. Ford’s Peace at Work and feel even more prepared to take on this next challenge.” – BL\, 2024 \n  \nFormat\nAll 40 hours will take place in-person during a live class\, including small group role plays with individualized coaching. Each day includes 1.5 hours of total breaks. \nDates\nMonday\, March 2 – Friday\, March 6\, 2026 from 8:30 a.m. – 6:00 p.m. each day (PST) \nLocation\nUC Law SF\, 198 McAllister\, San Francisco\, CA 94102 (in-person training only) \nMCLE\n40 hours of California MCLE credits available\, including 1.5 hrs Elimination of Bias and 2 hrs Legal Ethics.
