Does the Supreme Court of Ohio certify mediation training?
The Dispute Resolution Section does certify 40-hour advanced family mediation training that is required under Rule 16 of the Rules of Superintendence for Ohio Courts. Certification of a Training Program does not allow individuals trained in that program to identify themselves as “Supreme Court certified mediators.” Please note that Rule 16 certification does not provide Continuing Legal Education (CLE) credit. Forms for obtaining CLE approval are available at http://www.supremecourtofohio.gov/CCLE.
