There are two main strands to our work; the Skills for Local People pathway for people living or working in Newham, and our other Short Courses detailed below.
Skills for Local People
Our foundation training courses develop self-awareness and conflict resolution skills amongst local people and run several times every year. These courses are designed to build on each other until participants are ready to use the skills they have learnt by volunteering with one of our teams in the community. The courses are:

Who can attend?
If you are an adult living or working in Newham, these courses are free and you only need to complete an application form. Competition to attend the Advanced Interpersonal and Mediation Skills training is high, therefore we only accept people who are willing to make a commitment to volunteering with us onto this course.
If you do not live or work in Newham, you can attend these courses for a fee of £100 per day. Please complete an application form and send with your cheque addressed to Conflict and Change.

Short Courses
We believe our expertise is extremely relevant to people working in many different sectors and want our courses to be as accessible as possible. As such, we have designed a range of short courses which people inside and outside Newham can pay to attend. These are:
- Mediation Skills
- Facilitation Skills
- Conflict Resolution skills for working with young people
The cost of attending these courses is £150 per day. Please complete an application form and send with your cheque addressed to Conflict and Change.
To reserve a place or for more information about these courses please contact Tanya, Sonia or Zakir on 020 8552 2050 or email training@conflictandchange.co.uk.
Feedback for our individual training
Here is what previous trainees have said about our individual training courses:
"Really dynamic trainers who understood the different levels that participants were working at and all their different experiences and backgrounds. Ideas were explained simply and clearly, and I always felt comfortable to share stories and ideas”
“The delivery of the training at C&C was excellent ... the training is well organised and supportive, which enables all members of the group to participate in activities.”
“Training at C&C has given me a great deal of confidence and given me a sense of empowerment. I have also picked up many skills which have been useful for my personal and work life.”
“The training changed my life. My relatives and friends try to use me as a mediator, at workplace my colleagues always ask me to resolve issues.”
