Dispute Resolution

A comprehensive overview of the modern practice of online dispute resolution (ODR) around the world. Participants will learn about the history and development of ODR, the current state of the field, and advantages and disadvantages of using online techniques to resolve disputes. The syllabus will systematically explore several types of ODR platforms in use around the world. Including automated negotiation, solution databases, and virtual meeting rooms. Participants will also get a chance to try out the tools used to practice ODR, giving them a chance to confront common practice challenges and overcome frequently-encountered difficulties. The course will involve several role-plays, and each participant will have a chance to participate in these simulations as both a third-party neutral and a disputant. At the conclusion of the course all of the participants will receive a certificate indicating their completion of the training and summarizing the work completed.
