Feedback from people who trained with Align

I cannot recommend Harry and Steve at Align Mediation enough. They, and the service they offered, were of the highest order. The whole process was both professional and highly personable throughout, from initial conversations about which course was most appropriate for my future career goals, through to the booking process and the subsequent help and support on completion. The course content, delivery and level of participant engagement were simply top-notch.

A massive thank you to Steve, who delivered a first-class mediation course that captivated the group throughout the week. Well-balanced theory and practical sessions really helped me develop skills, knowledge and confidence. Harry was very supportive throughout and provided detailed feedback on my assessment. I would highly recommend Align Mediation's course to anyone wanting to start out in mediation.

I had been looking for a mediation training provider for some time. As I run a business, the live course was not a suitable option, so I opted for distance learning. The course content was of very high quality and the filmed sessions gave a feeling of greater involvement. Harry was extremely professional and supportive as I approached the final assessment. I would thoroughly recommend Align Mediation.
