Upcoming Events

Funded by Scottish Government, SCCR runs a series of free in-person and online training sessions, workshops, seminars and conferences across Scotland. Our events for young people, parents/carers and those working to support families focus on conflict resolution as a means of early intervention which improves relationships and lives, and ultimately reduces youth homelessness. Our bespoke Mediator and Mediation Skills Training course, accredited by Scottish Mediation, is a training program for professionals and practitioners that not only equips them with the latest in mediation theory and practice but also offers a supportive environment for honing skills. Email sccr@cyrenians.scot for more information about any of our events.

Training

The training examines conflict resolution as a life skill which can be used by anyone irrespective of their role. Training and events are open to parents/carers and young people to attend and we welcome participation from everyone.

Collaboration

The SCCR can also deliver training in house to organisations or groups, and we are keen to work in partnership with others. So, if you are interested in hosting a training event or have an idea for a seminar or local event, please do get in touch!

    • Event Feedback

    "I thought it was good to learn how to deal with things [when I feel overwhelmed]. All the information in the session was good."

    Young Person Wellbeing Session (2023)

    "Very simple put forward information and easy to understand. I feel more confident speaking to young people about their emotions, and will use SCCR resources when doing so. My highlight would be learning the difference between anxiety and stress, and feeling more confident about explaining this to young people and adults I support."

    Professional/Practitioner/Volunteer Understand, Communicate and Resolve (2024)

    "Thank you so much for this wonderful, informative and easy to understand session. Gave me lots of food for thought, my approach tomorrow morning will be different - calmer for all! Thank you. "

    Parent/Carer Conflict Resolution Series (2023)
