UNCG is proud to be the first university in North Carolina to offer a Master of Arts degree and post-baccalaureate certificate in the growing field of Conflict Resolution and independent mediation. All courses for the degree and certificate are offered online. There is also a face-to-face, in-class conflict resolution degree or certificate option available at UNC Greensboro.

Conflict Resolution is a unique and dynamic field of study offering professional training for adults eager to expand their career opportunities. Conflict Resolution skills add a valuable and timely interpersonal dimension in the areas of independent mediation, community development, human resources management, social work, and business consulting, to name just a few. The UNCG Conflict Resolution curriculum is a rich and challenging interdisciplinary program that draws from law, psychology, human resources, anthropology and sociology disciplines. Skills and strategies learned over the course of study become life-long tools for promoting peace, collaboration, and dialogue in all areas of life.

Our goal is to mold thoughtful and insightful conflict practitioners - professionals with a critical understanding of theory and method, and a deep appreciation of diversity, human rights, and personal responsibility.

Things Learned While Pursuing An Online Conflict Resolution Certificate:

Formal dispute resolution processes such as negotiation, mediation, and arbitration. These varied alternatives for resolving disputes are private and more efficient than traditional adversarial proceedings. We train individuals in the essential elements of each process, including relevant skills, procedural steps, terminology, participant roles, and legal considerations.  UNCG offers a more formal study of conflict resolution in its new certificate program designed for mediators, arbitrators and other professionals.

Individual and group skill building in conflict resolution and independent mediation course study. Conflict arises at all levels of an organization, but need not be a destructive force. Our training is geared towards teaching individuals and groups to resolve conflicts and disputes at the lowest possible level and by the parties directly involved using independent mediation course study. 

Interest-based negotiations, conflict resolution, and problem solving. There are many ways to negotiate a labor contract, resolve disputes, or solve problems. We teach parties how to take the competition out of collective bargaining and day-to-day workplace conflicts through alternative mechanisms that often lead to more constructive and mutually satisfying outcomes.

Violence in the Workplace:  Policy and Prevention. The essential elements of a workplace violence prevention program and independent mediation course study include policies, independent mediation, behaviors, and skills for defusing potential violence or reacting to violence incidents.  We help organizations and individuals learn to identify and address the sources of potential violence and deal with individuals in crisis.
