Our trainers are professional negotiators, facilitators, and mediators with years of applied practice. We present strategies
learned in the real world and provide multiple opportunities for skills practice. To earn the Udall Certificate in Environmental

I see opportunities to apply skills I learn across all levels of work—modeling collaborative leadership skills for others;
interpreting conflicts; creating more effective collaborations for problem solving.
