Certificate in Negotiation and Conflict Management
United States Institute of Peace
Year of completion: 2010
This course provided a thorough conceptual framework to help practitioners structure their efforts in negotiation, with theoretical and practical investigations of hard-bargaining vs. problem-solving approaches, interests vs. positions, value distribution vs. value creation, coercive leverage vs. normative leverage, short-term agreements vs. long-term relationships, and other considerations necessary to the development of effective overall negotiating strategies.
These principles are illustrated in two extended case studies: the negotiation to bring a peaceful end to apartheid in South Africa, and the U.S., Soviet, and worldwide bargaining process that led to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT). The course then concludes by focusing on keys to successful negotiation, and practical steps to help you negotiate more effectively in real-world situations.

Diploma in Neuro Linguistic Programming
The Association for NLP
Year of completion: 2011
Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) is a method of understanding how people achieve success in a wide range of fields such as sport, education, management and therapy. In 1974 its developers proposed that NLP would provide users with the tools to analyse, incorporate or modify any sequence of behaviour they observed in another human being. These NLP tools involve analysis of a person’s internal and external communication (linguistics) and the effects (programming) this has on the way their brain operates (neurology). In other words, NLP is about using the language of the mind to consistently achieve our specific and desired outcomes, this is what the NLP Diploma course will allow you to explore. The NLP Diploma course gave an insight into a range of NLP techniques, enabling therapists to integrate these skills alongside their own toolbox of techniques.
Theoretical information was provided throughout the NLP Diploma course, followed by exercises enabling the learner to practice and consolidate the skills of NLP.
