TRAINING
The EDR Program specializes in training individuals and teams to skillfully navigate conflict and effectively collaborate. Our audiences range from University of Utah graduate students to professionals working across the U.S. and internationally.
We offer our flagship Collaboration Certificate Course annually to teach environmental, natural resource, and public policy professionals the art and science of collaborative problem-solving. Graduates of the course become members of the Collaborative Leadership Network, where they receive opportunities for continued education, coaching, and peer-to-peer support.
We also offer tailored, on-demand training and individualized professional coaching on topics related to conflict resolution, collaboration, facilitation, and collaborative leadership. To learn more about our current offerings or to request training, contact us at edrprogram@law.utah.edu.
