What market currently exists for ADR? In what capacities are mediators being utilized?
Mediators are being used in almost every capacity imaginable. See the essay “What is Mediation” (linked to from http://adrr.com/) and realize that every thing that is “mediation” is done by mediators. There is a huge market, especially for “pro bono” services (“pro bono” short for “pro bono publico” is the label for services provided by a person for free, as an unpaid volunteer). If you are not interested in being a volunteer, then read this guest editorial (used with permission). To see what typical training is like, visit forty hour class outline.
