Founded in 1985, the mission of the Mediation Training Institute International is to be a value-adding resource for identifying and removing the hidden costs and business risks caused by adversarial practices within organizations.

Currently in our third decade, MTI has pioneered the use of the Internet to raise awareness of the costs of unmanaged conflict, and the benefits of intentional conflict management and mediation. The mediationworks.com website has enjoyed #1 ranking on Google for "mediation training" every day since 1997, and receives over 1000 unique visitors daily.

Our community's free and non-commercial MTI Monthly Newsletter is enjoyed by our over 75,000 members, making it the most popular newsletter in our field. Our range is global, with daily visitors and inquirers from every corner of the planet. MTI is proud to be an agent of constructive change in the world.

Now, in 2008, another significant initiative was launched. A global interactive community was established to take membership in our conflict resoution community to a new level - connecting professional solution providers with consumers of conflict resolution services — in organizations and societies worldwide. One that will help conflict resolution professionals realize their personal, professional, and financial potential.
