Mediation Training Done. Now Where Do You Practise?
Practise mediation through realistic online simulations, across time zones and with fair allocation of roles. You’ll learn how to actually mediate online — from using breakout rooms and digital whiteboards to managing the dynamics of a mediation when everyone is in a different physical space. You’ll also work with practical mediation processes, forms and templates — from intake and Agreements to Mediate to Memoranda of Understanding — while learning from the systems and processes behind a professional online mediation practice.
Practise for real
Move beyond theory and training simulations. Gain practical experience, build confidence and develop your judgement through a structured, professionally organised simulation environment designed to help you grow.
The complete experience
Experience what it actually takes to run an online mediation from beginning to end — from preparing the case and working with the parties before the mediation, through the mediation sessions themselves, to follow-up, agreement and closure. Our established systems and workflows take you beyond the mediation conversation and into the communication, preparation, technology, documentation and processes behind a professional mediation practice.
Every perspective
Become a better mediator by experiencing the process from different perspectives. Mediate, co-mediate, play a party or take part as a backup/observer — within a structured process designed to give you meaningful practical experience over time.

BUILT BY MEDIATORS. DESIGNED FOR THE REAL WORLD.
We believe in practical learning.
The Simulation Hub has been built around the real systems, processes and practical experience behind One World Mediators and professional online mediation in an increasingly digital world.
We understand your needs.
As practising mediators and co-founders, we understand the gap between completing professional mediation training and gaining the confidence that only practical experience can bring.
Learn from our groundwork.
Over the past year, we have invested significant time, research and resources into building the infrastructure behind a professional online mediation practice — from client communication and intake to documentation, technology, scheduling, confidentiality and the mediation process itself. As a member, you get to see how these elements come together in practice and learn from our experience.
Make it yours.
The Simulation Hub gives trained mediators the opportunity to step into that environment and experience it for themselves.
The biggest impact.
Knowing how mediation works is one thing. Knowing how to do it in the real world is another.
