Testimonials

Elizabeth provided training at a four day Elder Mediation training session that I attended. As a lawyer, trained mediator and having had a decade-long career in long-term-care, I had high expectations for the Elder Mediation training. Elizabeth surpassed all expectations with her extensive knowledge and genuine enthusiasm for the subject matter. She not only educates, she inspires and motivates.

The ability to resolve conflict effectively is an essential skill in both our personal and professional lives and in my experience not often taught in most educational programs. As a participant in Elizabeth Sterritt's Mediation: An Introductory, Interactive and Interdisciplinary Course in Conflict Resolution my expectations were exceeded by a skilled and knowledgeable teacher and mediator. Course materials were excellent and I continue to use the text book on a regular basis.

Elizabeth's warm and engaging facilitation style allows her to connect with her audience in a meaningful way. Her extensive experience and passion for her work comes through in an authentic way and contributed to a wonderful two-day session that she led for a group of staff at Champlain CCAC. We all left feeling that we had been provided with an extremely valuable learning experience.
