Friend of the Court ADR training offered online

The Michigan Judicial Institute (MJI) and the Friend of the Court Bureau (FOCB) will present the “Friend of the Court Alternative Dispute Resolution Training” online Tuesday through Thursday, August 11-13, and Tuesday and Wednesday, August 18-19, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day via Zoom.

MCR 3.224 provides that the State Court Administrative Office (SCAO) will establish training and qualification requirements for persons conducting each type of alternative dispute resolution activity.

This virtual 20-hour training meets SCAO’s training requirements for Friend of the Court staff to conduct facilitative and information-gathering conferences and Friend of the Court domestic relations mediation.

Due to the interactivity of the webinar, participation will be limited to no more than 24 participants. MJI will ensure that as many courts are included in the training as possible.  

To register for the training, visit https://mjieducation.

mi.gov and click on “events.” Once registration is approved, MJI will notify attendees of their acceptance to the training.
