The MSBA invites you to an all new live webinar: New Ways for Mediation: A Visual Approach on Tuesday, March 16, 2021 from 1 p.m. – 3 p.m.
As the saying goes, “A picture is worth a thousand words.” When it comes to mediation, the expression takes on even more meaning. A single image or graphic. A video or photograph. A moment captured with visuals. Each one of these multi-media methods can be impactful and effective in telling a story — often, far better than words can convey. This practical, entertaining and informative presentation will help you discover a different way of looking at mediation, and will provide MD Circuit Court mediators with 2 hours of your continued learning requirements.
Presented by James Gentry, Esq. of Gentry & Associates, LLC, will provide you with two starkly different approaches to mediation: one, the traditional route, which uses a mediation statement and paper exhibits.

The presentation will include actual mediation videos showcasing:
Viewers will have the chance to submit questions during the livestream as well as ahead of the presentation to Criselle Anderson at criselle@msba.org.
Two (2) hours of CLE credit will be offered with the surrounding MCLE states and if you can’t attend the livestream program, it will be available on-demand on our MSBA CLE catalog.
