AIM is a community where trainers thrive and synergize, and mediators connect, learn and gather to discuss the field’s growth and development.
“I have taken many mediation courses. I considered myself a seasoned mediator but it was not until I began taking Lee Jay's classes that I saw myself as a novice again. A depth of knowledge and technique and wisdom has been garnered from Lee Jay and Doug Noll and Ken Cloke. I know impasse is a fallacy. I realize that understanding the neuroscience of the brain makes me more discerning. I now mediate fearlessly. AIM has elevated my skills and enhanced my world view. I am a fan.” - Joan Stein Jenkins
